Default Marlin 336

Any suggestions for a scope, and scope base for a Marlin 336W?? I am currently looking at a Leupold VX-1 in a 2x7 x 33. Any other scopes, and what base would fit this gun??

I HAVE WEAVER SEE THRU MOUNTS WHICH IS A GOOD IDEA FOR A BRUSH GUN; I WOULD GO WITH A FIXED POWER

I put a Leupold FX4 on my .444 Marlin. Works great. I don't like see-thru mounts at all.

A leupold in 2x7 would work very well for a 336. I have a 1.5x4.5 power Bushnell on mine would have preferred a 2x7. I have a 2x7 Nikon Prostaff on my ML.
I have see through bases on my 336, but would not suggest them to others, as they do require you to have your head higher than with normal height bases.

I have a Leupold fixed 4X FX-II in leupold Mounts and low rings on my 336CS. I love this combo and truly recomend it.

if your going to use it for short ranges and thick brush, i have a xs scout scope mount and a bushnell 2.5X28 leupold scout scope. very bright and clear optics.i think it was just a hair over 200 bucks and 50 for the mount
