Manufacturing details of the Marlin Model 308MXLR
by Scott Crawford - August 6, 2021
- The 1st 308 Marlin Express Long Range was released in 2007.
- Available from: 2007 - 2015
- Cartridges: .308 Marlin Express
- Notes: A lever gun with performance nearly identical to the .308 Winchester. Introducing the NEW 308 Marlin Express Long Range, the most lethal combination of flat trajectory and game-leveling energy to ever grace a lever gun.
There was an issue referred to as "barrel droop" at some point during the production of these rifles which is better shown in this thread on the MarlinOwners forum. If you own this model you should be aware of this condition. Marlin (Remington Arms) at the time eventualy fixed/replaced these when returned to the factory however there could still be rifles in the market with this condition. Buyer beware sight unseen (online).
