Recommend for this scope for vintage Marlin 336 CS? It has never had a scope but is drilled and tapped. If so, what mount? Thanks

Not sure which mount, most use see though mounts so they can still use the irons. Doing so tends to raise your cheek weld a little high off the stock in my opinion. Use whatever mounts are high enough to allow clear ejection of brass from the chamber.

I think this scope would be ideal for that rifle but I would go with a higher 3x9 power for that application. At 100 yrds I find myself wanting a little more magnification than the 2x7 I bought. If you have old eyes, even more so.

XS sight systems have the ghost ring sights for the model 336. I would go to their web sight www.xssights.com and there you can select your model Marlin or you can call on their 800 number and talk to their rep.

Paul, I have some close up pictures of this on my Benelli Supernova Tactical. If you send an email to trandall02@gmail.com I'll send you the pictures of it mounted and you can make a judgement call.

I used it on a marlin 22 wmr with no issues except it was difficult to see my steel sights. The mount screws are in the way. But it stayed secure.

The dust cover rail is the absolute worst option for mounting a sight, but yes it will fit on it. I highly doubt it will hold a zero at all though.

I have a Ruger Mark II 22/45, and it looks like it would need to be drilled and tapped for a mount before a holographic sight would work, mainly because the Ruger is rounded on the top of the barrel. I have heard of some clamp on mounts but I'm not sure how well they work.

I don't think you need new mount all I know is that I got a different rifle scope for my L96 and it works perfect as far as this scope goes I really don't know if it will work with another mount. Hope that helped you

The pix's fool me, first note it is a 30mm ring, second it appears to be an offset, it is not, depending on your scope, the front site will be in the view, most times it is to close and will not cause a problem. I was looking for a mount that set slightly off center. Hope that helps

I don't foresee any problem with a good set of mounts. I have one on my .243 for years and have had no problem. I wouldn't hesitate putting it on my 30.06. BTW - I like the Tasco better than my Leupold in low light conditions.

As long as it has a 3/8 dove tail mount your good to go... Sits perfect on the stock rail on my marlin .22...

There should be no need to shim anything, you might want to invest in some better scope rings. The mount should be above and weaver rail parallel with the barrell, if you have anything but, it's either a scope ring, scope or dovetail issue.

Hi my name is tom I put one of these mounts on my dpms upper with my flip up rear site and it clears fine. But you must remove the scope to see your front iron site depending on the power of the scope it will be to close and you won't see it. The ruger has a longer rail than my upper has so you will be fine. keep in mine when you adjust the mount to your rifle mark you lable where you mounted it so you can return it to the same place on the rail each time. after installing I check my set up with both a lazer bore sighter and 100yds paper 5 shot group and 5/5 on returning with in a quart inch of my first zero. I am impressed. Hi my name is tom I put one of these mounts on my dpms upper with my flip up rear site and it clears fine.

I used the Kalinka Optics low profile side mount for the Mosin on my custom heavy barreled Mosin with no issues. Other options are the Rock Solid mount (pricey but the best on the market), ATI mount (cheap, works but bent bolt sold with it is garbage).

Norman, I am not sure. I only have experience with H&R; Handi Rifles. I do know the scope mounts has only 2 holes and are evenly spaced. I also know the mount is a major improvement in any mounts I've seen or used for the H&R.; Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

I would use the mounting system found at Henry's web site, http://www.henryrepeating.com/st-scope-mount.cfm. Make sure it is tight and you may want to use a small amount of lock tight to make sure the mounting screws don't come loose. I use the scope on my old Winchester and it handled it with no problems.

If you are talking about the correct rail/mount size, I would start at the Marlin (or whatever manufacturer's) website. If you don't find what you need, call their customer service. If you are talking about the magnification/diameter, that is largely personal preference and the intended use of the rifle. I would say this would be a good overall candidate for a 22lr.

This scope was mounted on a Marlin Model 336 in .30-30 and also on a Savage .308. The scope held zero just fine and would surely stand up to the mild recoil of an AR-style rifle/carbine.Eye relief is about 3.5". The rings that are supplied with the scope are fine, but I removed the rear sight of the Marlin .30-30 to provide enough room for the front bell.If your AR does not have a front sight, the scope will work; albeit, it is a full-length scope. If you have the standard M4 front sight, you might want to look for a different scope and quick-release mount.
