Marlin Model 60
 
Hey yall. I just wanted to ask everyones opinion on the Marlin M60 .22 rifle. I love mine. I think it is also underrated beside the 10/22. Shoots, in my neck of the woods, I can get a Marlin 60 and 500 rnds for less than $150. If yall can pls post yalls experiences/opinions of the Marlin Model 60. Thanks and God Bless!

Biggest problem with Marlin model 60s I have seen is most folks don't clean them. After a couple of bazillion rounds, they don't function to well. I have bought a couple for next to nothing, because "they jam, and they don't work!" I took them home, and cleaned them up, and they funtion like new.

I got two of em. Great plinkers and rabbit/squirrel guns. Yep just keep them clean and they will shoot forever.

I love my old beloved Marlin Model 60! :D

Yes, it is true and well documented..... The Marlin Model 60, totally, absolutely, DEMANDS to be kept clean!!! Keep it clean after ever 100 rounds (and I mean break it down to clean), and it will last a lifetime. I have had the same Marlin Model 60 since I was 14! [8D]

I have owned two model 60s and three 10 /22s. The marlins were a little more accurate, but the 10/22s were more dependable. If I had cleaned the guns properly the 60s would have been great. My pickup guns don't get cleaned like they should so I stayed with the Ruger.

I've had mine since I was a teenager. No doubt it will be the first passed down. It's given me some very fond memories of squirrel hunting with my friends. Never had a problem.

I had a marlin mod 60 it was nice handling gun but not as accurate as the 10-22 I traded it off for. heres a target I shot yesterday at 50 yards with my 10-22.

I'm very proud of this group I had to post it again this time with a quarter in the picture for reference, I did this with Wolf .22 Match Extra the stuff is worth the $5.00 per box of 50 rounds. I would like to know what they do in a Marlin Mod 60.
