I think the youth of today might be OK after all...it's SO cool to see these pics of kids (particularly the daughters...you too Kurt) being taught properly....awesome pic! You might have read about my issue with the newer Marlin .357 feeding right out of the box (sounds MUCH worse than yours though). As Jeff commented, those pistol cartridges (not .22lr) just don't feed smoothly like a 30-30. Mine just needed broken in a bit and me to change my technique slightly from my others. Thanks for the re-inspiration with these theads, I think I'll let my boys Henry & Marlin hop in the truck and go for a ride later
