Long-time 39M shooter, and just bought a used mod 60 for quicker follow-up shots for chipmunks. (Yeah, I'm old and occasionally miss.) Haven't shot it yet, but the mild report of a short is preferable to the loud, *CRAA-A-CK!!* decibel level that more gunpowder sends out.
Does anyone shoot .22 short in this machine, and what are your results? TIA for your input.
From the online manual, Marlin tells me:
• WARNING: Your rifle is a self-loading
.22 caliber designed for .22 Long Rifle
High Velocity cartridges only (not Hyper-
Velocity). Shorts, Longs, and Shot cartridges
can be loaded and fired, but
Marlin does not recommend them, as
feeding will not be reliable and damage
or injury may result from their use.
