Marlin 783

Post by Shakey Jake » Fri Apr 20, 2018 2:12 pm

Went out and shot some .22LR at the steel targets this morning and while I was at the range I shot the Marlin 783 22WMR. 50 rounds, 100 yards, Redfield 2X7 scope. Had an enjoyable morning.

Remember, it's not how many guns you have. It's how many bullets you have.

I've had a few Marlin bolt 22s over the years and all have been fine shooters, too. Nice shooting.

Nothing at all "shakey" about holding those sights on target.....good shooting!
And glad you had a fun morning sending those .22 rounds down range. :)
