Looking for a target .22, like the Marlin any other suggestions? Don't want to break the bank really also want a good scope.

Suggest away and thanks in advance!
 
I'm with Mike -- this looks like a great kid's gun. Has anyone seen/handled one up here yet? I was in the Gander Mountain in Duluth and they hadn't heard anything about them. . . .
 
I was really pumped at the idea of getting one (the $ very attractive) to save about $100 on the Savage 93FV I had my eye on. Truth is, when I finally held it, I wasn't overly impressed. For a $202 gun, I'd bet it's EXCELLENT value and to me honest, I'd have no hesitation buying a Marlin...but I ended-up choosing the Savage instead. They're both inexpensive/econo rimfires but even at that...the Savage just seemed better built. I've had lots of trigger time with Savages too, so maybe I'm a little biased.

It crossed my mind that it would be an excellent/light carry rifle...one you wouldn't mind getting rained on, etc. With time, I'm leaning towards lower-maintenance things in my life, so synthetic stocks are holding more appeal for me than ever. Hate the thought of scratching a beautiful chunk of walnut!
 
I'm most interested in the XT-22YR:

My son would love this rifle, but it doesn't sound like we'll see any until the fall. :(
