Very nice out of the box. Scope is very basic but works fine. Love the 30-06 power.

This was my first gun order from Bud's and it was a very smooth process. I will definitely be ordering again. The gun itself is very nice for the money. The scope is basic, but for my son's first rifle it will do. I haven't shot it yet, so i will post again after. Thanks Bud's.

Once again, this is the third weapon in the last few months that I have bought through Bud's Gun Shop. And as always, top notch company with a great reputation.......that delivers fantastic products at awesome price points and quickly as well. I highly recommend Bud's Gun Shop and plan on purchasing more weapons as funds allow, My new Marlin 30-06 Bolt Action Rifle with Scope are very nice, and I am totally satisfied with the purchase. Fit & finish are great too.

Took a little bit of time to sight the scope in it was way off but after that it shoots like a dream especially after installing a bi pod. I originally was going to purchase the axis but after shooting both the marlin is far superior especially the the trigger . The bolt is smoother and I don't have to worry about the clip falling out. Plus added bonus it has a much better scope

Had zero issues, arrived in great condition as described. Bought 03/13 but just got around to shooting and sighting it in. Zero failures and easy to zero in and hold. Had tight groupings with 180gr Winchester @ 25 yards

Gun fires nice but not too friendly with Korean Surplus ammo. Everything else fires fine. Biggest issue was the scope was WAY off at 100 yds but I'm sure I probably got "that one" out of the bunch. Scope is zeroed in and no problems since. Good gun, I would definitely buy from Buds again.

Excellent rifle for the money it really outdoes both the savage axis and remington 770. When it comes to these types of "budget guns" this Marlin is tough to beat, the scopes not terrible but not the greatest either. This is really a light shooting gun, recoil is absorbed very well. Trigger is great and easy to adjust (accutrigger knock off.) For about $400 bucks this is a helluva gun... oh and its a top load only. That's a preference for some, a deal breaker for others. And for all you poor souls in the people's republic of kalifornia it's a way around that draconic law that may pass in your state banning all detachable magazines from ALL RIFLES. No detachable mag so you're good to go. PS get a boresighter or have someone help you sight this one in, UPS isn't the most delicate with their deliveries so the scope may be a little outta wack, mine was but i had a laser boresighter and 140 rounds later we're still ringing gongs at 300 yards.

Great gun for the price. Sighted in quickly. Worth the money.

This gun goes BOOM. Fit and finish are nice given the low price. I was pleasantly surprised at the relatively low recoil and accuracy of the scope straight out of the box. First shot was at a 2liter bottle from 30 yards and that thing exploded like you wouldn't believe! Can't wait to get this sighted in and start cooking venison.

Very nice rifle and very nice to shoot. The trigger is a pleasure to utilize though it might catch you off-guard with how light the pull is though it can be adjusted. The scope is very good that came with it if you know how to sight in or bore sight. Overall could not be happier with this purchase. The rifle will have a considerable kick for those that do not know or never having shot 30-06 before, so you should be aware before buying that this rifle takes control to shoot effectively as all larger calibers do.

Nice fit and finish. Great trigger! About 3lbs. outta the box with no creep. These Marlin "X" guns really do seem to be alot of gun for the money. Everyone says they're tack drivers. Can't wait to find out for myself.

Great gun at a great price. Finally got it to the range and sighted in. I replaced the decent scope with a Leupold. I was on the bullseye within 5 shots. I ordered on the Monday after Thanksgiving so shipping was a bit slower, but still within the advertised time. Rather impressive with all the orders that I'm sure were received over the holiday weekend. As usual, another great transaction from Bud's. Highly recommend this Marlin!

Sorry it has been so long for the followup on my range experience. The scope was a bit difficult to adjust but finally I got it to move the the bulls eye. My last 4 shots were sub MOA. This gun is a shooter and I can't wait to line up the crosshairs on a deer.

I just received this Marlin XL7 in 30.06. I will grade the fit, finish, and feel in this review as I have not taken it to the range yet. I just picked it up about an hour ago. The gun looks really nice. The finish is as good as on much more expensive guns. It looks better than my Rem. 700 synthetic. the feel of this gun is really nice. It is really balanced very well. The recoil pad is awesome. The fluted bolt is really smooth and locks down very tight. I am not sure how I will like the blind floorplate but I knew about that before I bought the rifle. The scope is a 3/9/40 Bushnell Banner. I will probably fit this gun with a better piece of glass, but the Bushnell looks serviceable for now. The price is awesome. $325.00 delivered and my FFL Dealer only charges $25.00. This gun looks and feels like a $700.00 value. I can't wait until I can take it to the range and sight this baby in -- hopefully in the next couple of weeks. When I do I will come back and share my groupings with you. Bud's, you have done it again. A great rifle at a great price and the best customer service available. Thanks!
