A friend is selling and I cant decide which of the 2 marlins to choose. I like the history behind both rounds, but there is something likeable about that lil 20 in. barrel on the 35mm. Off our shooting lanes can get snarly, so when we are tracking other people's deer the 35 with its small size and slight increase in power seems the ideal, but I've always wanted a 30-30 so i'm torn.....
