I have a couple of nice 1894s (.357 and .44mag) and couldn't imagine a scope on those. Your set up of the dark marlin with suppressor on is in my opinion about as sexy as it gets! does the midwest hand guard change the weight much?

@ebee

The Oceania suppressor does a really good job of suppressing it, it is a pleasure to shoot. It is a little lighter than the stock grip but I didn't weigh the difference. The rifle weighs 3.7kgs all up from memory with the suppressor and scope on it so not super light but certainly not a really heavy rifle.

Goats and three gun mainly. And everything else you might use a 12 gauge for.

I bought it because I wanted it lol and would probably never spend 4k on the real thing.

I brought a Benelli M3 (which switches between semi auto and pump) to replace my Typhoon for three gun. I have never thought about using it on goats but that makes more sense than a bolt action. Do you go after them with solids or double ought and what do you consider the ethical / effective range?

Still to try mate. AR in 223 or 6.5 Grendel was the go the before

@Rushy

Yeh I was using my AR on goats as well and it was a very effective control mechanism. It still pisses me off that I no longer have it. The club I belong to has not run a three gun since the ban.
