Alleydude, sounds like you did the best thing at trading, good that you are having fun at one of the best past times with your daughter! Your Marlin 60 should be a blast! Check out the thread on things you shoot at. Some really good ideas!!!
I traded my single shot Model 67 Winchester [wish I had it back] for my first .22 repeater, a Mossberg Model 146B with Weaver 2X scope. I was 13 at the time back in '67. It was a fun gun and I killed my first groundhog with it.
Someday I hope to get it back, it's easy to identify, tube feed, bolt action, plastic finger grip, full monte carlo walnut stock, someone drilled holes into the stock and filled the holes up with light color wood filler, spelled out B.F. It's good to see new model .22's coming out. I have had a few mis fires with ammo that didn't get the proper primer in the rim. All in all the .22 ammo is pretty good with the qualities produced.
