Picked up a new Marlin 1895 Trapper in 45-70

Fit and finish is good to go from the factory. Was also able to hit my target at 40 yards. Thing is an absolute cannon. That is all.

I heard rumors Marlin is getting their shit together. Good to hear it's true.

Yup. Used 325 grain leverevolution. Was like shooting a 10 gauge.

If you reload, use Trailboss and 405 grain. Very pleasant. 13 grain and cast.

I was thinking of getting some of those 495 grain hard cast and downloading slightly.
