Got my scope on and bore sighted it in our kitchen. Pretty much got it lined up left and right. Took it out and shot it for the first time today! I was using probably the most sophisticated target available, so I'm pretty confident...  Shots 1,2, and 3 at 25 yards going down 10 clicks between shots to bring it down. Went out to 100 yards with shot 4 and came down 10 more clicks. Then shot 5&6 back to back. Pretty sure I pulled both right. I rested from walking back and forth a bit then shot #7. Should be close enough to kill a deer!

looks like you walked it zero. might have taken 3 in a row to confirm, but looks right.
Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting.......holy kaka.....What a Ride!

Jacob, is this the Marlin with the laminated stock you ordered from Porter's?
