[QUOTE="fatcpa, post: 2575741, member: 11311"] I bought a Marlin 1895GBL a few months ago. It's a Remlin, but I guess I got a decent one. The fit and finish is not perfect, but it's not bad. I get a kick out of shooting it (literally). I've shot several store bought loads, but am now mainly shooting reloads with 405 gr bullets from Missour Bullet and J&K. I bought a Lyman mould and have cast a bunch of 405 grain flatnose of my own. You'd be amazed at how much lead you can go through in no time casting 405 grain bullets. I'm still experimenting with different powders and messing with different lubricants for my cast bullets. I have a Skinner ghost ring sight on mine with a real small insert. 100 yards is the outside limit for my old eyes, but I still have fun shooting it. If you don't want to beat your shoulder up you can load way down with Trail Boss. [/QUOTE]
