Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Marlin Levermatic was a family of lever-action rifles created by Marlin Firearms in the 1955. The Levermatic differed from the traditional lever-action rifles, such as the Marlin 39A, in that it employed a cam-and-roller system giving it an extremely smooth and short lever motion to reload a new cartridge. This cam-and-roller system was originally invented by Kessler Arms Company for their "Lever-Matic" shotgun. Following Kessler's dissolution, Marlin licensed the idea and began producing rifles using a similar design. The Marlin Model 56 was made between 1955 and 1964. There are no records to give a more exact date.
This revolutionary rifling led to common reports of this rifle producing 1" groups at 100 yards (now commonly called 1 minute groups, or minute of angle groups, with 1" at 100 yards equaling 1 minute of angle) or even less (which is known as sub minute of angle grouping.) one This achievement is now much more commonplace with advancements in metallurgy in regards to cutting tools, and Computer Numerical Controlled machining. But in the 1950s; this was an outstanding achievement, especially for the .22 Long Rifle rimfire cartridge. Also contributing to its accuracy was the one-piece stock with the rifle action bedded.
