Which one would you choose?
OK.... Still looking for a bolt-action .30-06....
Two options: Marlin XL7: black synthetic stock, NIB - $210 Howa 1500: wood stock, NIB - $250 Which would you choose and why? |
I'd take the Marlin. I've never handled a Howa - or Marlin bolt-gun, for that matter. But Marlin's levers are absolutely top-shelf - so I'd go with the Marlin.
My $.02 |
Howa make a nice product(same as the wby vanguard) and that would be my choice.
|
though ive never shot one i heard the marlin xl7 was an awesome gun for the $
|
Definitely the Howa.
Where are you finding a NIB Howa for $250? |

Don't know much about the Marlin.But I would go with the Howa anyway.
|
I've heard good things about the Marlin, and planned on buying one, but I would grab the Howa for just $30.00 more IN A HEARTBEAT ... Doesn't mean I wouldn't soemday own the Marlin, but I never thought I could buy them at near the same price.
With the prices you quote you must go for the Howa. My reason is simple. For way more years than I've heard good things about the Marlin XL7 I've heard GREAT things about the Howa ... |
Believe I'd buy one of each!
|
Thanks guys. I wish I had the time and the income to buy both. I've got to sell one of my muzzle loaders to pay for this one.
