Got her the other day and tricked here out.
Hooked her up with a 2x20 EER Nikon and a Wild West lever.
Now to work up a load.

Dumb question here... Is the barrel drill and tapped for the mount already or does the mount only go into the front receiver holes??

Should be a great rifle! I really enjoyed my nine years with the .45/70 Marlin.

You've been down the .45/70 road before haven't you Fotis?

 

[FOTIS]

About 13 times.

This one I have to keep.....
Irene's gift for 20 years of marriage....
