How good's this?
G'Day All
Last week I got my 32/20. One of the old Marlin 1894CLs in unfired condition. I got it off Robert Tobler (the Bear) after I pestered him to the point of insanity. Thanks to him.
There was a group of us Ramslammers down here in Tasmania for the state Silhouette Titles (non Cowboy) so the local Pistol/Cowboy club put on a shoot, which we are very grateful for. Anyway I've got my new 32/20 and one of the others,Cus has his 100yr old 1892 in 32/20 at the shoot. We decided to shoot both Rifle and Pistol with them with a small wager involved. Incidently I lost!
The best part was we both used my cast bullets lyman mold (311576, 120gr rn/gc also off the bear), and every Ram we hit in Rifle went down as easy as can be, in fact I hit one 2 inches above the front foot any over he went. I was as happy as a dog with a tin d%$k. The ability of this little round has impressed me no end and even though I wouldn't use it in Rifle all the time it will be fun occasionaly to see what it'll do.

Fobis you couldn't hit anything with it at the shoot and after the derogatory remarks you made about that lovely Marlin Cowboy I just couldn't send it to a loveless home. I've still got 4000 of those primers to go, one thing they show up any flinches(worked alright in the Fist of God [1894p 16" barrel 44 mag])
Tasco you can't say anything because otherwise I'll let slip to our Friends north of the equaitor about my certain correspondance with your mother. Also you didn't have the balls to stay and shoot it out with the rest of us, SHAME, SHAME, SHAME. At least the Bugle shoots a 7/08 and she uses full loads in the 44!!!!!!!!!!!
