I used to have 2 Marlins once upon a time (when I was a kid)
The kind of rifling is relevent only WRT the type of bullet used. Micro is good with cased bullets chiefly.

Excluding general circulation news papers, the people that write about guns tend to be shooting enthusiasts who work for shooting related publications or organizations.
What is your point?
Most stories that involve guns are not written in shooting related publications or organizations.
Consider the comments on this thread. Many are about the rifle, because they had personal experience with that rifle.
Many people are interested in that information. Pictures are not always available. The article that reported the use of the firearm referred to it as the woman's "snake rifle". They could, nearly as easily, have referred to it as her Marlin model 60.
Obviously a semi-rural misspelling of Who Shoot You road.
Long, long ago...in Southern KS...
Well there's a creek crossing..that is rock...and two buddy's an I were out there..out of the car...just talking..and one of my buddies has a .22 bullet in his hand...and throws it down on the rock...and it goes off!!!
Me and Rick...wanted to pound him!!!
Crappy photo. Looks more like a Ruger 10/22

The pertinant point was that she scared off the crud.
Almost any firearm would have accomplished the desired result.

Rimfire cartridges are good (?) for that trick.
True.
People like to know details.
.
LOL!
The writer was just giving Marlin a free plug. (which is his privilidge)

That’s pretty funny! Reminds me of hunting small game and target practice with friends in the Ozarks way back when. :-D
We were goofy in some ways as teenagers, but we were more conscientious and safe with firearms than in some other activities. Boys will be boys.
FOLKS: Did you know that Twitter, Disqus, and Facebook ALL CENSOR certain conservative firearm and abortion speech? See this: It is worth noting that both Disqus and Fakebook CENSOR any mention of a website,
www.CodeIsFreeSpeech.com
that provides FREE downloads of 3D-printable firearm blueprints. And, since Facebook/Disqus logins are so prevalent for posting commentary across the Internet, they are very effectively suppressing this “Forbidden Knowledge” almost EVERYWHERE. Please go to the website, download some or all 10 of the free blueprints, and then, repost it to your friends and across the Internet, to the extent you can. Strike a BLOW against Fakebook and judicial CENSORSHIP! Support TWO amendments at once, the First and the Second. Because they WILL try to take them all away!
