Well I just completed a straight swap of my Marlin 336C in 35 Rem for a new 223 Ultra Varmint. :grin: :grin: :grin: Now all I have to do is wait 10 days (

Stupid CA law

) and get a scope and I'm all set to go to the range. :lol:

Handi,
Congrats on your new rifle. That Ultra Varmints a really good gun. That's the way I get a lot of my guns. Sell, trade, and get involved in something new. I have a Taurus 92 that's looking a lot like another rifle. The problem is, I need to get caught up to the ones I already have. Getting the right loads worked up, scopes and sights, slings, when you buy a gun, your still only half way there.
Don

I know the feeling. That was one reason for getting rid of the 35. Too many calibers.

On the other hand a 30-06 barrel is definitly in the future for this one and a 45-70 sure sounds nice. Had one of those before. It's fun to get kicked hard! :grin:

Congrats...I still haven't gotten the chance to get out and shoot my new UV 223 because of the weather. Once the snow melts a little I plan on shooting a lot.
