.22 cal Marlin Papoose Survival Rifle (video)

I'm shopping for a good-for-the-dollar .22 rifle as a backpacker and survival rifle. Between several options (AR-7, M6, Armalite (Henry), etc) I have chosen the Marlin 70PSS Papoose. The goal is to have something relatively lightweight, reliable, and easy to handle. The action on the Papoose is pretty much the same as on other Marlin .22 semi-autos (60, 65 series, etc). This is a video that demonstrates the rifle (I think) fairly well.

Opinions are most welcome. YMMV.
