I bought a new Marlin 336 in 1979 for $125. It's currently in my Son-in-Laws possession. He's holding it in trust for my grandson . It's still in excellent condition .
I like the rifle, its looks, and the Skinner sights. I have an older, 1980s 357mag Marlin 1894CB and I added the Skinner sights. They work like a champ.
Marlin lever action rifles are a fine example of American made. I have harvested most of my black bears with a 30/30 lever action rifle of the 18 bears I have harvested.
thats a great little package i have several of the 2000's davidson's special runs. my 336 sdt is one of my favorites. they need to bring that trapper out in the 35.
Looks like a great rifle for the platte bottoms I used to hunt. Got my first deer with Marlin 3030 Texan close to Ashland 1972. Iowa now using 44mag and 35 rem in two Marlin pre Remingtons. 👍
i love a lever action rifle my grandfather had a gold trigger Marlin i myself had to start hunting with a Ruger 44 semi auto old style little rife because of a left arm missing if not for that i would still have one but i don't collect guns so there is no reason for me to buy one super nice rife
I just came across your channel and really liked your style and great review of this Marlin Ruger manufactured 30-30. Now I’m thinking of buying one if these rifles. I’m a new subscriber to your channel. Thanks for your extensive knowledge as well as your great review too.
Anything worth owning, firearms wise. Is expensive these days But you get what u pay for with these. Lever actions are much more costly for the makers. Lots of moving parts that need to play together.
Rossi has introduced a R95 in Nth America, chambered in 357, 44 magnum, 444 and 360 I think. Shares the same design so can use aftermarket parts designed for this rifle. I’m waiting for Rossi to release this in Australia
I have a Rossi R-95 chambered in 30-30 and a new Marlin 336 Classic. Both have hammer forged barrels, and the Rossi surprised me with its accuracy. The Marlin has better wood, checkering, wood to metal fit, and overall just feels better made. However, the Rossi is a perfectly good tool. In addition, Rossi made 2 changes to the 336 action which I think are real improvements. First, they did away with the 2-piece firing pin and went with a modern firing pin block. Second, they got rid of the 19th Century spring around the bolt extractor and went with a Remington 700 style extractor. I still like the Marlin better …
I've been lusting over this one for quite a while. I have yet to pull the trigger. I do mule packing and live in the woods, so this would really be perfect.
Nice... Two questions come to mind. How are you able to obtain this new addition. When it is virtually impossible to get the first one that came out in .45-70 ? Second, Ruger had the audacity to make proprietary minor changes to the Ruger /Marlin [.45-70]. So parts from both the original Marlin and the Remington Marlin do not interchange. Then, they announced they would not provide any repair services to any other than the Ruger Marlin version. So it's probably safe to say this applies to this one as well ? Not to mention that the price went up considerably.
I picked this one up from Sportsman’s Warehouse. From what I understand, several of the parts from the previous generation are interchangeable. I saw a video with one of the Marlin folks that specifically asked that question. Thanks for watching!
I've got a 336 Marauder in .35 Rem. I've got an old 1.5x5 x28(?)mm Weaver scope with post reticle. I picked it up used in the 1980's. It's been well used but not abused. My #1 deer gun. Short, light, powerful, & accurate.
I would be cool to see what sort of velocities your getting from this. Maybe even compare it to a 20 inch 30-30 and see what sort of difference you'd get.
I was thinking the same thing...the 20in 3030 is moving at like 2200 w 170s...thats probably one reason I wouldn't want this...just get a 762x39 in 16in and you get 20in 3030 velocities
I am estimating 16 to 20 fps per inch of barrel loss. That is about true for most standard velocity centerfires (not magnums, not the small bullet launchers with crazy velocities). Again, I am estimating from my experiences, not staking a claim. It might be fun to do a test and know, or just chrono the short rifle.
@@johntempest267 That's not really what the question was about. More like trying to confirm ideas I've been going over but I don't have a way to verify myself.
With all due respect to the naysayers, *"There is no such thing as an inexpensive handgun, shotgun, or rifle that is simultaneously high-quality."* The two terms do not go hand-in-hand. Ruger resurrected Marlin from business extinction, and that rescue cost them hundreds of millions of dollars that won't be repaid to investors and shareholders for decades. If one wants an inexpensive lever-action rifle that is of lesser quality than the Ruger Marlin's, then go purchase an import manufactured overseas where wages are exponentially lower than in the United States.
Chambered in 35 Rem., it would be absolutely perfect. BTW...I can remember buying 35 Rem. ammo for ten dollars a box. I think I even remember getting them for $8.99/box.
Ruger didn’t “re-tool” production. They built an entirely new factory to manufacture the new Marlins. By the time Remington bought Marlin, the old machines were pretty worn out. Also, the new Marlins have hammer forged barrels with normal rifling. No more Microgroove rifling. They are more accurate than you might expect from a lever action. A 16” barrel in .30-30 doesn’t appeal to me much but YMMV. You probably lose 200 fps vs. a 20” barrel, and .30-30 isn’t the most potent cartridge out there. Some older Marlin and Winchester .30-30s had 22” or even 24” barrels for a reason. In contrast, 16” gets just about everything out of .44 Magnum. I have a new Marlin 1894 Trapper in .44 Magnum, and it’s a sweet, handy rifle!
Thanks for the comments! I’ve shot just over a box through this rifle. It shoots high for me, but manageable. I’d like to chrono it just to see what muzzle velocity is versus something like a Model 94.
@@chipsterb4946Yes, unfortunately out of the box I can only get about 1/3 of a turn lower on the rear sight. I was hoping to get at least a 1/2 turn and flip the aperture to the other side but no luck. Lots of threads to raise it, but it’s bottomed out for me. I might call Ruger/Marlin to see options.
Nice rifle, I'd like to get my hands on one, i have a remington made marlin 30-30 in stainless, i got lucky the one i bought looks and shoots really nice. Good luck to you, and I hope you take a deer with it.
I like the looks of the picatinny on the SBLs with the 19” barrel, but also like the stripped down look of just the skinner sights on this 16”. A guy could put a rail on fairly easily. Thanks for watching!
Marlin firearms were originally built & priced for working class folks, as were Ruger to a lesser extent. Now they are a fashion statement and should also be advertised in COSMO magazine.
I’ll agree with you that they’re a little spendy, but then again it seems everything is a lot higher now than it was even a few years ago, let alone 15-20. Thanks for watching!
What's it good for? 16 inch barrel, small caliber, you say it's guide gun good in brush, so it's accurate out to what ... 80 yards, maybe. As for being a "guide gun", yeah maybe if your being charged by a whitetail... against a moose or brown bear? Good luck.
I’ll have to get back to you on that. We’re knee deep in the Nebraska deer firearm season and my oldest son is currently using the new Trapper. Thanks for watching!
@@graham765 Okay, I grabbed the micrometer and took some measurements. Overall height from bottom of mag tube to top of blade - 46.93 mm Barrel & Mag Tube - 34.13 mm Barrel Outside Diameter - 17.89 mm 46.93 - 34.13 = 12.8 mm front blade height above top of barrel 17.89 / 2 = 8.945 mm center of bore to top of barrel 12.8 + 8.945 = 21.745 mm (0.86 in.) from center of bore to top of front blade Hopefully that all makes sense. If your can diameter is 1.72" or less, the top of the front sight should be visible over the suppressor. Let me know if you want me to grab any other measurements!
@ super helpful info! Thanks so much!! Can is 1.7”, so would be able to see just .2” of the front sight over the top. Not sure if that is enough for deer hunting or not.
Just a quick update: this rifle has been shooting consistently high for me, and my rear peep is bottomed out. I contacted Ruger & Skinner both today. Skinner is sending me a new front sight that will be 0.625" vs. the 0.500" stock sight. If you happened to get a new one that's shooting high as well, that would gain you a little more clearance over a can as well.
Nope. We don't need "space cowboy" lever rifles or threaded barrels on classics. Ruger, we are still waiting for a real 1895 with a 24-26" octagon or half octagon barrel and a half magazine and something similar in the 336. Seriously, also just make more of them as well!
I want a Msrlin stainless 336 in 357 mag. But once I found out it was over $1,000 I went with a different brand. SHAME on Ruger for the ridiculous price!!!!
😂 Safety first of course! Yeah this part of the video was already getting long so I filmed another segment on the range Sunday. Traveling for work this week and haven’t gotten any edits done. Thanks for watching!
As much as I love tradition, 30-30 is dead in the water. Straight-Wall states are lapping lever guns up. 360 Buckhammer, 350 Legend, 450 Bushmaster etc. That's what they ought to be making. Of course, 45-70 and 444 Marlin should be in there too. Luckily, Rossi has their finger on the pulse of the market with their excellent R95.
In states without bottleneck restrictions 300 Blackout and 7.62x39 have replaced 30-30 with the vast majority of hunters and gun owners, as well they should. The rifles chambered for them, as well as the ammo, are cheaper than 30-30 while offering the same level of performance with less weight.
The action is a little tight yet, but it is better after running the first box of ammo through. It’s not as smooth as my Model 94, but that rifle is 65 years old so it’s smooth as butter.
Yeah I kind of wish Ruger would have canned the crossbolt safety. I will have to make a conscious effort to turn the safety off after years of using old Pre-64 Model 94s.
Yes Dano I agree, but the safety can be removed and a plug installed. I am sure this rifle will have the half cock feature on the hammer that has worked as a safety on many million other lever guns for over a century. Those cross bolt safeties leave me cold.
I have owned a Marlin 336 for 45 years. Very well made, Never an issue, accurate, doesn't rattle, Walnut stock. Great gun ! ! !
This is my first 336, but they are fantastic rifles! Thanks for watching!

Luckily in our area it's about as common as 30-06 or .270 on the shelf.

As much as I love tradition, 30-30 is dead in the water. Straight-Wall states are lapping lever guns up. 360 Buckhammer, 350 Legend, 450 Bushmaster etc. That's what they ought to be making. Of course, 45-70 and 444 Marlin should be in there too. Luckily, Rossi has their finger on the pulse of the market with their excellent R95.
In states without bottleneck restrictions 300 Blackout and 7.62x39 have replaced 30-30 with the vast majority of hunters and gun owners, as well they should. The rifles chambered for them, as well as the ammo, are cheaper than 30-30 while offering the same level of performance with less weight.
My late dads Marlins 30/30 and 35 rem where stole from my home in 2015 by meth heads nice looking rifle thanks for the video.
Damn that sucks! I appreciate the comment and thanks for watching!
they are too stiff an tite. cant action them like a winchester when they are shouldered. levers are suppose to be quik, not tite
The action is a little tight yet, but it is better after running the first box of ammo through. It’s not as smooth as my Model 94, but that rifle is 65 years old so it’s smooth as butter.
They went stupid on these prices. These guns are worth about 300 dollars just flat out crazy prices
Will never buy and lever gun with a safety on it. Safety is between your ears.
Yeah I kind of wish Ruger would have canned the crossbolt safety. I will have to make a conscious effort to turn the safety off after years of using old Pre-64 Model 94s.
Get a safety delete from ranger point precision@@HuskerHunting
Yes Dano I agree, but the safety can be removed and a plug installed. I am sure this rifle will have the half cock feature on the hammer that has worked as a safety on many million other lever guns for over a century. Those cross bolt safeties leave me cold.
1,000
I’d rather have a remlin then hearing about how ruger bought marlin by boomers over and over and over again
Spend the extra and get an older Marlin or Winchester. This rifle is junk.
The lighting in your "studio" sucks. And try coordinating with your camera man so filming occurs while you're talking and pointing at something.
Thank you for the unsolicited feedback. Enjoy your day.
