RE: Marlin 336 Help
First thing,PLEASE do yourself a favor and DON'T get "ironsighter" scope mounts. They sound good on paper but in reality put the scope too high for you to see thru it making it impossible for a good cheek weld. At the same time,only a small tunnel to see open sights with.
Second thing,DO NOT listen to the guys who talk about a bushnell sportsman scope over a leupold. Yes,there are other scope options,but remember-you get what you pay for! Any of the better lines of major scope makers will perform good.
Also,don't fall into the trap of overscoping.AKA too much magnification
