Yep.. If these things had been in modern chamberins.. I would have boght them I think. I can probably get them both for 750 each though. That 338 RUM is somewhat violent on both ends I think I have a Kimber in 338 Win Mag..Someone wants that 338 RUM..probably a lot more than me. I shot the 348 again today. Not quite as small on the groups. But it is a lever gun..and I am variable on group shooting. Couldn't see quite as well today I don't think. And I put a little larger peep in the sight. Could see through it better..but just not as precise. It is NOT a target rifle anyway. Angle of elk or deer or moose is good 'nuff. LOL. I also shot my Marlin 444. I think it may well be a bit more accurate than the 348 anyway. It also wears a peep. My 64 Winchester does too. I almost bought a really rough Marlin 1894 at the show over the weekend. No sights and loose forend. He wanted 295 bucks for it. And wouldn't budge. It needed the front sight screw holes re tapped.. So I didn't budge off my 250 offer. Why is it all of a sudden I have acquired a few lever guns??
