A cool guy at the range was launching 38s out of his model 60 and let me use some ammo to shoot, but the marlin doesnt like .38, it likes 357, due to the case length.

You should call in and complain to the regional/district manager.

I thought it was funny they sold me .22, the most commonly used round in pistols in the nation, but not 357. Oh well drifted the sights on my savage and now its a nail driver.

Yeah, it doesn't make much sense. Everyone knows there are plenty of carbines that shoot pistol ammo. But I have had to show my ID every time I bought 9mm at Dick's Sporting Goods, and I assumed they were trying to verify I was 21 (because I'm pretty sure I don't look young enough that anyone would think I'm under 18. ) I don't remember if there's a law against selling pistol ammo to people under 21.

If you have friends who are over 21, best thing to do is ask them to come with you. Or just ask somebody you know to grab you some .357 the next time they happen to be in Cabela's.

They tried to pass it as "Law" instead of "store policy."

Law says its defined by the firearm you shoot it in, story policy is that a 19 year old girl is the end all expert on federal law.

That would be a straw purchase and that would be illegal.
