I agree, I was absolutely blown away when it was told to me, directly from the maker of the rifle, Mr. Corey James. With that load it beats most of my other rifles I have. Of course, my next question was how much and how long...but that just the levergun lover in me. So once I get my hands on one, I'll have to be sure to report back here!

Here’s another one of mine. It’s a 1st year of production Winchester 94 “big bore” in 375 Winchester. It’s a top eject, with a side mounted 4X scope.
Unfortunately, I just didn’t have time to shoot it this evening. I was working with another rifle and time got away from me. She’s definitely going out on the next range trip!

I’ve always wanted one of those.

I got a little too "carried away" with lever actions last year.
Marlin 1895 LTD in .45/70. The 24" barrel is 1/2 octagonal and 1/2 round.
Also found an 1895 LTD-III in .45/70. 18" octagonal barrel.

Me too.
I also found a Marlin 336 "Texan" in .30-30 last year.
I've only bought 2 guns, so far this year (including one today).
I try not to ever berate my wife's purchases, BTW.
(Because, I'm probably much worse and I will probably, actually benefit from them)

Well Hell, if we are throwing .44 Magnums into the big bore mix…let me introduce a Marlin 1894 I like to call “Chili Maker”

I am again looking for 600 Nitro dies preferably RCBS 1 inch. The set I purchased previously are 1 1/2 inch and do not fit my die. Another member has graciously taken them off my hands. If anyone happens to have a set of 600 Nitro Dies that will fit my Rockchucker Supreme RCBS press, please shoot me a message and thanks in advance for any assistance you may have to offer!
