RE: Marlin vs. Winchester leveractions?
It's not that I'm small that I want a short pull, I don't really worry about the pull...as long as it's not more than 1/4" longer than what fits me, I'll shoot them as short as they come...I'm used to shooting semiauto rifles like AR's or SKS's, also browning pistol "carbines" and semiauto carbines all with rather short pulls, and I do a lot of rabbit hunting with a "Snake Charmer" that has a 10" pull!!!!
This isn't going to be a long range hunting rifle, nor will it really be my "hunting rifle", it's just basically going to be a fun gun to have on me at all times...so I'm really attracted to the low price,
