I'm new here and looking to buy my first Marlin. I can't leave well enough alone and like the look of the Spikehorn. Anybody done anything with this. All I need is a carbine capable of about 150 yards, I have bolt actions for the longer stuff. I have a couple areas that I hunt that the bolt actions just aren't suited, and I found that out the hard way this year. What I am thinking is the Spikehorn with something like a 2-7X32 or straight 4X or 6X in Leupold quick release rings and mounts. Also a Sims Vibrations grind to fit pad, and replace the factory sights with some type of fiber optic. Eventually I would like to get the WWG oversized loop but I don't see any advantages to it other than asthetics. Does anyone know anything about the accuracy of this model? Well let me know what you think and thanks in advance.
