Doug seems to be getting back into the 22WMR thing in a serious way!

First a CZ, then the Lilja barrel. Followed by a wrestling match with a scammer.... Now the quest for a particular Marlin.... Hang on, Doug!!! Think you got the 'Cabin Fever' pretty bad this Winter.

The Marlins, if holding quality from the 80's, are VERY accurate rifles. I had one in the late 80's, a light barrel, magazine fed model in .22 mag., that would group the old Winchester 40gr. HP's into 1/2" at 100 meters with astounding regularity. I do not believe it EVER shot a group over 1", but with wind, sometimes they'd run out to that limit.

Always wondered how a 17HMR would be in a 57M. Just have not gotten there yet; but the concept lingers.
