I think I read somewhere Marlin recommended installing the stud 1" behind the bullseye as well. For me repairing the wood would be easier that replacing the bullseye and trying to get the contour correct. If I ever decide to repair it I prefer this over having to replace the bullseye.

They didn't pilot drill the hole so it cracked the surface wood a little. My 1958 336 someone installed the stud about 1-1/4" behind the bullseye and slightly off center. It identified the gun or at least the stock as a Marlin. I've read that the bullseye was a Marlin trademark of sorts. All three are about 1" behind the bullseye. Both my guide guns (a Remlin & a JM barrel gun) and my 1894. 35 Remington LeveRevolution ammo at a decent price, but Hornady seems to only produce it once a year before hunting season, so once a store is out, you might have to wait until the next summer to pick some more up. I've read that when they became "Remlins", some older parts (still stamped JM) were shipped to the new plant and used in the first rifles to come off of that line.īi-Mart sells the Hornady. The JM stamp, I believe means that at least the part were made at the New Haven plant. If you call Marlin and give the CSR the serial number, they can tell you what year it was made.

The MSRP for a new one is over $600, not sure what they actually go for, but I'd say your price is solid. From recollection he got it around the time he retired, so it would have been early 1980's, and the box still had the discount store price tag on it, I think it was around $115. I inherited a 336/.35rem from my dad, it was still in the cardboard box he got it in, never fired. I think you got a good deal (depending of course on the condition of the rifle).
