Ran across this forum one day a couple of months ago and keep finding myself here again. Always something going on it seems. Thought I should sign up and introduce myself if I'm going to make a habit of frequenting this place.

I have a couple of .30-30 leverguns that I like to plink and shoot targets with: a Marlin 3083 Limited Edition and a Win 94 made in 1974. Both have 20" barrels. I have shot the Marlin in Cowboy Lever Action Silhouette before and plan to do some more of that this year. The Win 94 is well-used but was still shooting well before the stock broke on it recently. I really like the way the 94 handles and it has a nice working-gun patina to it so I suppose I'll have to get it re-stocked pretty soon.

I have recently started reloading and am in the process of working up some .30-30 loads for the Marlin for CLAS. If anyone has any good ones they'd like to share I'd surely appreciate it.

I just wanted to add that I too have been a member for just a short time, and would like to thank everybody here for their hospitality, but more importantly, knowledge. Going through old posts and am beginning to think that I have a lot to learn. Welcome Razor.
