Marlin Model 795 vs Ruger 10/22? I just resently bought a ruger 10/22. I guess I never knew,or did not know about the Marlin 795. how do they compare? I looked them up,and in price there lower.
795 more accurate and there's a reason why they call the Rugers the most expensive 200 dollars gun you will ever buy
I went into Dick's SG. I was looking at getting the 795. My wife and I have a Winchester SXP. Our local armory only allows us to use slugs so the kick was very very painful for both of us. I wanted to be comfortable with shooting hence the shopping for a rimfire rifle. We looked at the 795, Moss 702 and the Savage Mark II but my wife really liked how comfortable the Ruger felt. I still have an interest in the 795 and the Model 60 if just for the wood stock. I had two questions. 1) Does the 795 come in a wood stock? 2) How are the Promag clips for the Marlin 795? Thanks, Jim
A good write up here on the 10-22 td . http://www.gunblast.com/Ruger-1022TD.htm 25 rounds at 50 yards , taking down the rifle and putting it back together after each 5 rounds. This 10-22 looks pretty dang accurate.
I have both, I think my daughter's North Haven 795 is a gem and the stock sights are a little easier for me to see. It has a synthetic stock, I don't believe you can get a wood one from the factory as of now. There are aftermarket options. My 10/22 is an '87 Deluxe Sporter, and it still shoots tight groups. I think the trigger is a little rougher than the Marlin. The Ruger magazines are nicer, IMO. And if you want aftermarket, you can buy almost ANYTHING for it. Plain-Jane box stock? Marlin edges it out for the price, but my disclaimer is mine is CT made and not KY.
