looking to buy this used marlin 336 and mounting my Burris fullfield on it. Any thoughts? Overkill? Is the max distance on a 30/30 recommended to be inside the 175 yard line for deer hunting? Thnx 👍

it should be fine... but it really depends on where you hunt and how you hunt. how far are most of your shots? that sort of thing.

my spot is in a pretty woody area but have decent clear lines of sight where the deer tend to cross at about 50-80 yards, then another spot in a corn field at maximum 200 yards.

Be fine I should think walking around you'll keep it on 3 and a bit more in the stand I would think

It is not a very big scope, so it should work just fine.
With moderately inexpensive scopes, I really like Burris' 2-7x35 and 3-9x40 Fullfield II variants. THey are generally durable reasonably decent optically, given the price. ILya

thnx for the feed back. Just got the marlin 336 Cs in 30/30... 1988 jm stamped. My God what a smooth action piece of work.. such a joy to shoot.. picked it up for a steal! $450 came also with doe call, compass, orange vest, leather cartridge belt, leather sling, mounted bushnell scope with higher rings so you can still use the iron sights. ( forgot the specs on the scope not as big as my fullfield but does the job at 80 yards ) 70 rounds of 30/30, cleaning kit, hard case, PLUS a cooey 600 in .22 with soft case... what a find!
