[QUOTE="deathwobble, post: 790323, member: 51173"] A friend of mine bought his daughters a couple of those marlins in 243 one managed a near 400yard shot on a 180" muley a a year ago or so .... Also not a real big fan of the EGW picatinney rails the slots have a huge groove length wise that dosent make to much sense to me when the more surface area the rings have in contact with the base the more evenly the force of recoil is distributed on the base and less likely to move. I would go with the Larue Tactical 20moa extenended base $80 or even cheaper Blackhawk or Weaver 20moa $30 over the EGW just my opinion. As for the scope never tried a Konus scope but I can say I have tried almost every model of Vortex scope and they all performed flawlessly. For 5-800 yards I would not go over 24x power on my current set up Im running a 22.5 power vortex and I normally run it on 20x. I have had no problem getting hits out to a mile. [/QUOTE]
