I just got a used marlin 336 .35 rem, and I love it; i call it "my ware wolf killer!" However, I really want the GBL or the SBL but I know it'll cost me so much more! What's effective range of the 45/70? Does it kick harder than the .35 rem?
@H3LIOTROP3 250yrds is not a bad shot for the 45/70, kinda depends on bullet weights and charges. It does kick harder than the 35 rem. I havn't shot a 35 in several yrs
I dont know what the recoil is on a mosin nagant, but mine doesnt kick that bad at all and i shoot 405 gr. remington and it kicks less than my 7mm or 300wsm
My Marlin did a number on a Gator here in Georgia the other day. I didnt think it would penetrate because the 45-70;s velocity is so much lower than the recomended .308 by the "pro" gator hunters down here.I love mine, its stainless.
Don't ya love how the smoke puffs out of the barrel when you cycle the lever?The sound of the action makes my mouth water. I own a 1895GS, the guide gun in stainless.
what helmet cam were you using mate... thanks

bullet mass can counter velocity, and vice versa. that's why there are so many polarized fans of either the 5.56 or the 7.62.

Does yours have the laminated Stock?
I think they look good on the stainless models.

I think only the XLR models come in the laminated stock. I have the walnut stock. I like the walnut stock better.
