I've got a Marlin XL7 270 bolt action that's just sitting in the closet ....I'm not likely to use it so thinking about trading it in towards a new or used budget AR that would be more fun to just go out and plink with ...possibly better for home protection than the 270 ..
but I'm not going to get into a knock-down-drag-out with my wife over how much I spend on it so what's out there new or used in the 500 or less range... I think the Marlin which has a nice crossfire scope on it might go for 200 or 250 being realistic.
