Thanks for the information. I load for a 32-20 so I am thinking this might be much different. What is the range for accuracy on the gun? 200 yard max?

Been looking at one but know little about the 44-40 what can people tell me about this cartriege?

What is the price they are asking? I have seen them all over the board. In excellent shape they are worth five to six hundred. If blued they should have the best bluing you have ever seen. Like a colt python. The action is also very smooth, like a custom gun. Must people describe them as a custom Ru...

I just purchased a marlin cowboy in 45-70. I have never loaded for this round so I would appreciate some help with powder choices and bullets selection. I will just be shooting paper at first so no reason for any HOT loads.
Thanks

I saw three 1894 cowboys on gunbroker just in case someone was looking for one.

Thinking about getting a 1895cb. I have a 1894cb in 45 colt and love it. Why am I thinking about one? Just because I love the 1894 and the longer barrel and the 45-70 case look good. Please give me your opinions. Do they shoot well, can they be loaded down for target shooting, do they recoil like a ...

What other questions could I answer? The bullets have been shot in a custom 44 mag, ruger blackhawk 3 screw and smith 19 also. I use a heavy crimp on the bullets. Also tried titegroup with the 44 and that did not help/

Trying some Oregon Trail bullets in both my 357 and 44 mag and getting leading in the barrel after 5 shots. I have tried tried this load in both my handguns and leverguns. What may be causing this? Load for the 357 is 5 grains of unique with a 158 SWC 44 load is 8.5 grains od unique with a 240 SWC T...

Called my cabelas in MO and they have a run of 1894cb in 32 mag. Asked them where they came from and they are referbished ones from Marlin. What are peoples thoughts on these guns. Price is $529

Price was about the same. I do like the 24" barrel of the limited but the look of the competition (case color). Was one better made?

Found both a cowboy competition in 38 special and a cowboy limited in 357. I will probably plink and target shoot with this gun so hunting potential for anything bigger then a rabbit is not an issue. Price is about the same. Is one better then the other? what is your opinion?
Thanks

I have narrowed the field of choice down to three Marlins. I have a 1984 cowboy on 45 colt. Would like to ad another. My choices are: 1. 1984 cowboy in 357 2. 1984 cowboy in 32 H&R 3 1984 in 32-20 Will use it to plink, shoot small game and have fun with. I can reload for all three so that is cov...

What is the difference between these two guns or is there nor difference.
Thanks

What can people tell me about the Marlin Cowboy Limited in 45 colt, Marlin 1894cl in 32/20 or the Marlin Cowboy in 32 Mag? I want to get a levergun besides my 39A's.

Thanks
