I like your choice will79. For sentimental reasons I would choose the Marlin 336C that I bought last year. At this point in my life, I want a challenge to get closer to the game I choose to hunt. Most of my shots always were within the range of a 30-30 anyway. And my Marlin has a nice walnut stock and shoots 1+inch 3-shot groups at 100 yds with factory ammo. The first deer I shot was in 1965 with a borrowed 35 Marlin. Nice to come full circle.

If I had to pick one gun and no other for everything... small game, large game, self defense etc. I'd have to go with my 870. I've used it for all three with great results.

My sako 308 would be the gun I would keep forever. It was bought in 1971 and my mom gave it to me in 1985 and have used it every year since. Heavy as hell and sounds like a cannon when it goes off but to me nothing compares.
