My 336 microgroove barrell didn't like 150 grain bullets at all. The 170 grain bullets shot really well. Just be aware you might experience a problem with the 150 grain bullets (mine looked like a shotgun pattern) but don't think it's the gun if that is the only bullet you are going to try.

My 336 didn't like 150's either. It shot some 180's I got at a gun show really well though. Of course, it also shot the factory leverevolution ammo poorly, but does much better when handloaded....
