Dec. 1st Henry BBS 41 & Marlin 1894 45 Colt
Was doing some load work on the Henry 41.
Temps. in the low 60's, little warm for Dec.
Using a 280 gr WFN BTB & some H 110 & 2400.
All shots 50 yds. 5 rds each. While I waited between shots on the 41, I would shoot the Marlin cowboy, ammo are reloads 200 gr RFN & 9.8 grs unique.
Shooting was on one knee 25 rds. RP

Nicely done. I looked at a Marlin Cowboy rifle a while ago. Used but it was a nice gun.

Mine is an '08, so one of the last JM's.
Previous owner had already installed the safety delete.
I think if I shoot it more we could improve.

That's a classic cowboy rifle for sure.

Nice Job Vaquero. Those Marlin Cowboys are great. Im lucky enough to own one. Its in 38-55. Last price I saw on one the pistol caliber cowboys was triple of original price. There hard to get and you can buy 2 Henrys for less than the price of one of those. Your Colt has nice wood on it, it looks good.
