Never said it was "The Best", said it was my favorite primarily due to that very short stroke.Oh, I don’t know about the BL22 being the best .22 lever gun.

I’m not sure what it is, but I always thought the old 783 was an exceptionally handsome rifle. I’m still on the lookout for a nice one to add to my collection.I agree with the Marlin micro-groove rifling for rim-fire.
I've got a Marlin 783 WMR that will surprise you just how accurate it is---unbelievable!

My old clunky Marlin 81 has been good today. 5 shots/ kills.

My Marlin 721 bolt will easily group in a .30cal hole @50 if it get's a lot# it likes. If I get a group any bigger than a dime, I immediately know it's the ammo or me. Best 150 I've ever spent in 1997.I agree with the Marlin micro-groove rifling for rim-fire.

It's been 20+yrs. What's your opinion about pulling some patches/a nylon brush? (Micro-grove)I’m not sure what it is, but I always thought the old 783 was an exceptionally handsome rifle. I’m still on the lookout for a nice one to add to my collection.
