That is a copy of the Ruger 77 bolt and reciever as Remington did the Model 700... nothing like the Black Diamond
Compare thisXR to the Ruger 77/50 below..

I do not own that gun but i would have a hard time calling that a Marlin Ruger MLS-50
I certainly looks like a "Black Diamond" to me.
I really have never heard of a "marlin" ml so maybe they did make one other than the Ruger that i am accustomed to - but i really thought I had seen most of them...
Gotta give the owner the benefit of the doubt - it must be a Marlin but is is new to me... can not believe thay made to many of them...

The mz in the link that chasam60 posted is a Marlin MLS 50. It's just like the one my buddy has. It was also made in a .54 caliber version, if memory serves me right. I've never seen a Marlin MZ that resembled the Ruger 77/50.

Chris= I read somewhere that someone converted a Ruger 77 to a MZ and used smokless powder. They bored out the reciever installed a breech plug and screwed on a custom barrel in 50 cal. Seems like a lot of work to me.
