I've never shot a Marlin 90, but Ted Janes, a writer for Outdoor Life, shot a 16 bore. His book "A Boy and his Gun" was my bible back in the day. It was a great story about him teaching his young nephew to hunt. The nephew died in WWII. I still read that book from time to time.

It's worth a read Gary. I got my first copy when I was ten years old. I've wanted to hunt as early as I can remember. That book fascinated me and I read it over and over as a kid. I still like to read it again from time to time. It brings back such wonderful memories of the times when I began hunting. The fact that the boy who was written about died in WWII makes it a poignant story. Lot's of good information for someone starting to hunt. I never tire of that old book.
