I don't recommend a new Marlin, by the way - the quality has slipped. If you do a little research, you can tell the rifles build before Remington bought them out. I personally prefer the guns built before the cross-bolt safety, but the main thing is to find a Marlin-built gun.
I really like to 30-30 round and rifles that shoot it. Good luck!
