Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
This Ducks Unlimited model of the 81TS is a beautiful edition of the Marlin Model 81TS. The checkering is wonderfully tactile and enhances the stock in a way that is not common to standard .22 rifles. The hand oiled stock finish invokes the quality of custom, hand built rifles. The barrel states that the rifling is "Microgrooved". Marlin introduced Microgroove rifling in their .22 rimfire barrels in July 1953, with 16 grooves that were .014" wide, and nominally .0015" deep. Ballard rifled barrels have grooves generally in the range of .069-.090" wide, and .0015-.003" deep. This change was marketed in the 1954 Marlin catalog, as having numerous advantages that this new form of rifling had, including better accuracy, ease of cleaning, elimination of gas leakage, higher velocities and lower chamber pressures. The catalog also claimed that Microgroove rifling did not distort the bullet jacket as deeply as Ballard rifling hence improving accuracy with jacketed bullets at standard velocity.
Return Policy:
We gladly offer a 3 day unfired inspection policy from the time that the firearm is delivered to your FFL. Refunds are available for all qualifying orders.
