Recurver Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 My Remington .270 is my go to gun..but having a lot of fun with my .35 marlin topped with a 1x4 leupold with the new hornady ammo it has become a tack driver.most of my shots are inside of 150yds I think the .35 will get the job done. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYBowhunter Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 I have a few high end rifles with very nice scopes, but my go to deer gun for the last few years has been my dads 50 yr. Old marlin 336 in 35 caliber. In those few years it has taken a bear and a few deer. Its compact, light and has whole lot of knock down power. I really dont see any need to use anything else. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckmaster7600 Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Not my favorite but I have a bunch of them. browning Marlins Rossi's Henry's and winchesters. I keep trying to like them and after a trip or 2 in the woods I go back to my pumps or semi's. I have them from 22's to 450 Marlin and keep trying to like them.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
92onCaliHollow Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 My father used to have this old .35 Rem pump. I have no idea if what make or model it was cause I was a lot younger. All I remember is the thing had these spiral like grooves cut into the tube mag for cycling some how and it had a butt plate, no pad, so it kicked like a damn mule....loved it though and now that I'm older, I know that anything in the .35 caliber, be it Rem, Whelan, or Marlin, is one of the best all around calibers u can have for the NY State woods. In my opinion that is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whauburger Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I snagged a 336 in 35Rem over the summer. I am leaving it with irons as a brush gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pygmy Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Considering the spirals on the mag tube, the rifle was likely a Rem M14 or M141... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NFA-ADK Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 30-30 Marlin and my favorite the Winchester 44 Mag Trapper model 94. Love the 35 round! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eagle rider Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 (edited) got me an old one with a gold trigger 1972 John Marlin 336C in 35. Inherited it from pop! She's a deer hammer. I did put a simple Bushnell red dot sight on it. Fast handling rifle and the red dot is nice in thick cover when cross hairs get lost in the understory, a red dot is still visible.

Buckmaster7600 Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I do love anything in 35 cal especially 35 rem as I have a couple Remington pumps in 35 rem.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teepee Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I have two lever guns, my favorite is the Savage model 99 in 300sav, with an old weaver 4 power scope. The other is my Winchester 94 in 30-30 with a peep on it. Haven't pulled the trigger on a deer with the Winchester yet put will keep trying. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marlin guide gun with a nice Leopold scope,on it.. ,taken grouse(shoot the heads off) bear,and,numerous Deer with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperMag Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 I personally don't have any levers but my dad has a Marlin 39A special edition 1 of 75. It's a sweet shooting gun and looks great with the gold accents. My next gun might be a lever, I've been looking at the marlin sbl. As for 35 rem, I've also always wanted one of those. Ive been on the lookout for a rem 760/7600 carbine in 35 rem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moog5050 Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 I really like my Henry 30-30, but if push came to shove, I would take a bolt action over lever action as my only rifle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
