Thanks. I did not go with the brass. Because this would be used for deer hunting I was concerned about the finish flashing in the woods.

JEBar,
I do not load my own ammo at this point. My brother in law does that and gives me rounds.

we hand load for ours .... doing so opens a much larger world for 30-30 ammo .... for your consideration, we've found that Nosler/Winchester Combined Technologies 150 gr Ballistic Silvertips in our 30-30 (link below) perform exceptionally well .... flat shooting, small groups .... the best source to purchase them I've found is in the second link .... right now they are out of stock .... if interested, you can call them and they will email you when they have more

Recently acquired my Henry 30-30 and put a Leupold VX Freedom 2-7X32 on it and it's great for deer in the woods. Easy reach to 100 yds.
Please keep us posted on how you do with a fine replacement for that Marlin!

Esquared,
What type of mounting rings did you use? Worried about the clearance to the back sight.

Dawg,
Ordered the Talley-made rings off of the HenryPride website. Designed to line up with the holes in the receiver, so no rail (a cleaner look, IMO) to mess with. The "LOW" height worked out just fine. I also added the Hammer Extender, which you'd probably need anyway. Here are a couple of links and a pic.
