I have the marlin 60sn, just a synthetic stock, but I think it was worth every penny, I've put thousands of rounds through mine with no flaws.

I have shot one plenty, and the issue I notice is because the rifle has the micro rifling instead of standard rifling, it's accuracy seems to degrade quickly without enough cleaning. Its dead on when clean but after putting a box of ammo thru it the groups will start opening up. Otherwise its a great rifle, I only use CCI ammo in it and have never had a jam or misfire

I keep thinking that as well, but for the price....

I like the last shot bolt hold open feature as well.
