I'm thinking about brewing up some loads for my old Marlin. Seeing that this rifle is largely retired and my eyesight doesn't get along with irons much anymore, high performance loads just aren't all that important.
I was thinking about cast bullets, but I've read that micro groove barrels don't do well with cast but i find other data that says the opposite. I'm thinking mild loads in the 1900-2000 fps range and bullets with gas checks.
Any thoughts on weight and powder or just skip it and use plain jacketed FN bullets like the Speer or Hornady?
