Most of the time your 1st thoughts are the best. Have you priced 30-30's lately? A budget bolt rifle in 243, 7-08 or 308 can be found for almost 1/2 the price of a Marlin 336C. While a 30-30 is adequate, any of the above rounds will do the same thing with much better range and accuracy, and no more recoil or cost. With modern bullets a 243 will work on everything from varmits to elk, and at ranges farther than most can shoot.
