    A 500 SW or 45-70 would be great. However, ruger is known for it’s mim casting to save on costs. If they go that route, I’m not sure their investment casting would hold up to a lot of those chamber pressures.
    MIM is more than strong enough so long as basic engineering principles are followed.

    I would like to see a really reasonably priced 336 in 30/30.

    During the Remlin years they were almost giving them away. I got mine with a cheap scope for under $300 after a rebate. Now that Remington is OOB, prices on all their previous products went way up. No big issues except the loading gate spring feels like 300lbs.

    I think a large majority of Ruger rifles are investment cast, I don't think its been an issue so far.

    I love Marlins and Rugers so this is a match made in heaven for me. I have two Marlins LAs. A older 44 mag, and a 3030 336 stainless with the gray laminate stock. I love the look of that gun. Anxious to see what Ruger does with the line.

    Gunz are icky.
    If Ruger was smart they should be tooling up big time for lever gun production.
    If the demtards manage to get semi-auto bans enacted there will be huge demand for lever guns. Heck, there already is.

    A usually trustworthy friend send me an email proclaiming George Soros had bought Marlin. I'm going to have to keep an eye on her. She doesn't live far from DC and she may have caught something from Xiden. LOL!
