I've wanted a 50-110 on and off for a number of years !
But I wanted it on an old original Marlin square bolt Model 1895 . Passed on one a few years back that had been made on an 1895 of 1897 vintage and had been rebored in the 20's or 30's I think .
When I was in the midst of getting the rebore or not I talked with Steve Brooks about making me a copy of the old Winchester 50-110 300 grain HP mold as well . He told me he could do it and I think then the cost was about $150 of course this was maybe 5-7 years ago .
Parkers , Mannlicher Schoenauer’s , 6.5mm's and my family in the Philippines !
I had Turnbull and his crew build a 50-110 for me on a Browning 1886 but opted for a 1/2 round 1/2 octagon barrel and short mag tube to keep the weight down. They sure do nice work.
Thanks guys! Bronco, I have a 26 inch barreled Marlin Cowboy in 50 Alaskan from Turnbull. I got an idea of what its going to be like. I'll probably shoot the 86 with cast 300's and Goex 2F.
