Default Problems with my new Marlin.

I just took my new Marlin 17 HMR. out and shot it for the first time today, and it seems to be hanging up on the clip when I try to feed the CCI bullets through it. It does not hang when useing the Fed. bullets though.

My question to you guy/gals is.

Have any of you had this same problem, and how did you fix it????

Thanks.

Hey gopher.

Just want to say THANKS for the website. It helped me fix the feeding problem on my rifle.

I tend to agree with the people on that site about how sloppy the new Marlins are.

I sure hope that they get their stuff togather.

Thanks again.

I like it .

It sure is accurate. It has a few flaws, but what do you expect for under $200.


I bought the 917V.
