If I were to get back into sniping fat fox squirrels again, it would be with this puppy. Marlin 39A with a killer scope that is very crisp and bright. I bought this new in 1973 in Lansing Michigan. I shot it with iron sights for many years and did very well until my eyesight went fuzzy and I couldn't see the rear sight well enough. With this scope, it will really reach out there with the stunning accuracy that Marlins are well known for. It's ridiculously easy to keep this within an about 1.5" at 100yds, and the scope has a BDC system.

Now that's a "head shot only" rifle!
