This may be an option for you.
https://www.mcarbo.com/marlin-60-/-795-subsonic-recoil-spring.aspx If anyone else other than you has access to it I'd put a warning or something on it. Crap happens. Oh, and welcome to Arfcom

Not the spring; you need to take some mass out of the bolt. I'd suggest a drill. Take a little bit out at a time.

I’m hoping the spring will be quicker, easier, and cheaper all around, but an extra bolt may not be a bad idea. Thank you. |

Colibri are not going to function semi auto in a Marlin 60, they just don't generate enough pressure. I doubt they would even cock the hammer back or make the bolt travel far enough to eject and pick up a new round even with extensive modification. Also the M60 bolt has to cam up the cartridge lifter to feed the next round, it's not going to happen with Colibri.
Maybe CCI Quiet with springs and a lightened bolt. |

Damn, I hadn’t thought of that. Guess I’ll see if I can get the SR-22 to work a little better with them and dedicate it if it can be made to cycle them.

I'm curious if anyone has come up with a combination that does work? I like the concept. |
