Wonder If anyone has or has info on these carbines? I know they were discontinued. Wondered about the accuracy? Heard the ruger in 40 cal was very inaccurate. Was thinking about trying some cast bullets in them but didnt know about the Marlin with micro groove barrels. Sure would appreciate any help. Am considering buying one or both if the price is right.

i have the ruger in 9mm. it does pretty well just what it was designed for. it's no minute of angle rifle, but does veery well on running puddy crats. Think M-1 carbine and you'll be in the same league

I have a camp 9 and although I only have open sights on it, I can hit cans everytime at 75 yards. From the bench of course! I am amazed at the accuracy. (Probably be dissapointed if I scoped it and tested at 100....)

Can't say about the 9s, but my Camp Carbine in .45 ACP does dandy w/ cast stuff...

Good luck!

I have both and the Marlin is more accurate than the Ruger. This is shooting the 124 gr. Nato rounds at 25 yards. These rounds seem stouter than the hollow point 124's that I have shot.
