The marlin model 990 was made to hold 18 rounds in its tube magazine.
I have a Model 67h, The magazine holds 4 with one in the camber.
the Model 77 with magazine ( clip fed ) holds 7 rounds of long riflel only. The tube feed model I believe held 15 rounds.
Impossible to answer without knowing the model.
The J C Higgins Model 20 holds 6 rounds with out a magazine plug
Your marlin should hold 5 plus one in the chamber.
