I saw this posted in the classifieds and I was looking for something I didnt already have. So after selling my Glock I bought this Marlin 1895 ABL. Got it yesterday and took it out today and shot 14 rounds threw it. It is LOUD but sooooo much fun to shoot.

and this is a 5 shot group at 20 yards (indoor range its to hot outside)

not that bad considering I was not using any supports on the gun and sitting in a plastic chair.....

Thank you for buying that so I wouldn't have to.

I was thinking the same thing... kept calling my name!

Very nice. That is what I had when I hunted hogs. I wish I still had it.

Thanks guys, I got lucky and got a offer on my G22 that was close enough for me to sell it. I really wanted something that is a do all kinda gun and if this one had to I think it could.

45-70 along with 7X57 Mauser are two of the great cartridges, an the 45-70 made a very good transition to modern powders. I really like both of these!! Congratulations on your new toy!!!
