We bought my son (10) a new Marlin 336Y 30-30 Win. for Christmas. It has the short 12 inch stock and short 16.25 inch barrel. Other then being smaller, it looks just like my 336C 35 Rem. He shot about 30 rounds through it yesterday before it got to dark. He absolutely loves it. It was the perfect gift for him. We got our two girls (older then him) laptops and he got the rifle/carbine for their big gifts.
It came with a Weaver Base and Rings and with a cheap 3-9x40mm no name Scope. He's not going to use it. He wants to get the same XS Sight System Ghost Ring Sights that I have on my 336C 35 Rem. He shoots mine pretty well but it's to big for him. The 336Y fits him perfectly and he'll be able to use it forever. Marlin did a good job on the 336Y. I'm 6 foot tall with regular length arms and even with the shorter 12 inch stock it fits me pretty well too. I want to get one now lol!
It's a brand new Remington made 336Y. The fit and finish is great. The action works smooth as butter and everything else work great as well. We couldn't be happier!
NYH1!
