The marlin 308MX (that fires the marlin 308 Express) isn't even in the hands of any retailers yet. I called all around Kansas City and no one has it. Cabela's said they will have them on sale as of Oct 31st. It will retail at $699 (over $200 more than a new marlin 336C in 30-30 or 35 remington). Coupled with a good scope and open sights it looks like it will be the ultimate deer rifle
It's funny because Cabela's actually has the 308 Express ammo but no rifle [&:].....
Just because Cabelas doesn't have them, doesn't mean no one does. There is one on Marlinowners.com in the classifieds now, and there is talk of other dealers having them.
