   Also depends if you’re planning on getting a second rifle at some point in the not-too-distant future. In that case the .243 would sit nicely in the cabinet alongside any of the WSMs or a 7RM. I’ve...

   Despite shooting my first white tail in 5 trips to the island, this really was the highlight of the trip. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n85D31_yp7o

   As maca 49 says it's rifled probably 1:40 or slower so start with round ball. The old fashioned way with those to get the charge is to place the ball in the palm of your hand and pour powder onto it...

    You probably put about 60 grains of FFFG down the barrel, after cleaning any oil out and depending of the twist, stuff a round ball with a greased patch or a greased 45 cal projectile down the...

    Marlins aren't what I would call a super strong action like the ruger no.1. I don't think it's smart to try for 2400fts for example with a mid weight bullet. That would be violent to shoot anyway

    1800fts with a 300gn is pretty manageable if your shoulder is injury free. After about 20 shots that's starting to feel pretty ordinary if I'm being honest. Not really a plinking load

    Good advice right there. The "goto" load that usually works for me in 308 is 46gn of 2206h behind a 150 - 165gn bullet, it'll often shoot sub 0.5 moa without any further faffing. It's a John...
