      I'm not. Ruger can stick it where the sun doesn't shine as far as I'm concerned. They not only killed off the affordable Marlin rimfire line after promising to keep it going, they are purposely not selling any Marlin replacement parts according to a former Marlin repair outlet I called the other day. The former Marlin repair guy told me Ruger has a whole warehouse full of Marlin parts that Ruger is refusing to sell. Word is that they are doing this to force Marlin owners to abandon their now "legacy" guns and buy Rugers instead. This is sleazy beyond belief. Tens of thousands of working class kids who own Marlin Model 60s and 795s who use them for Appleseed events can't get replacement parts for them. Total CRAP. So I will never buy a Ruger produced Marlin lever action unless and until they start releasing parts for Marlins again.

    Just as an FYI, you don't have to use a pistol scope to mount a scope out toward the muzzle end of the rail. Burris, Leupold, Vortex and probably other quality scope makers make a scout scope specifically for that purpose. I bought the Burris 2-7X32 w/ ballistic plex reticle and it's a great scope, plus when I let a friend shoot it who is a little concerned about the big-bore recoil, they don't worry about scope eye and it helps them relax a little more when shooting the rifle. Plus it looks great on the rifle and, in my opinion, much better suited to the look of the rifle than that primary arms scope that you were using. As nice as that scope appears to be, it just doesn't look right on that style of rifle, IMO. Thanks for the video, my SBL is one of my favorite rifles.

    Great reveiw... as usual.
    Got one and love it. I hadn't even thought of shooting it at distance. I got it for up close and personal big critter protection in Alaska. For that purpose I've got a red dot on it, and it's super quick, both eyes open / no eye relief concerns, and more accurate than I am. (I may have to try this rifle with a scope after seeing the longer range groups here.)
    I also swapped out to a Wild West Guns trigger, which I'd recommend to anyone getting this rifle. (No affiliation here; it's a definite improvement.)
    I've got a LimbSaver slip-on pad (before I actually picked up the rifle), and it does the recoil reduction job as advertised, but I've only used it a couple of times. If you're a normal height person, that slip-on pad might make the pull length a bit too long. (I'm 6'3" and it's OK for me, but when my wife tried it, it was a no-go.) I also want to keep it at stock length during normal use to make sure I don't get hung up on jackets, etc., when the rifle is needed in it's primary role.
    I do like the Hornady Leverevolution 325gr ammo, after getting a some boxes when they were on sale.
    I also tried some Underwood ammo that uses Lehigh Xtreme Penetrator bullets, and bought a box of Lehigh bullets to reload.
    This rifle definitely fills the 45-70 square for me... it's not going anywhere.

The new River made Marlin 1895's are selling for around $1200 - $1400, and are under considerable demand, but slowly becoming available as Ruger sets up manufacturing for each model and sub-model. I think as they become more and more available the prices will stabilize or even drop a little.

Sales volume, future demand, upfront retooling, how many setups/machines it has to be machined in/on and a litany of other factors play into how much something should sell for.

    I'll ad my 2 cents. I bought the new Ruger SBL in March of 22. I have since put about 500 rounds through it from various factory loads to several handloads. Stay away from any +p designated ammo like Underwood or Grizzly. The action would blow open partially with these loads and lock up the lever requiring disassembly. Everything else has worked just fine. Compared to my 2000 made JM Marlin 1895G. I'd say it's about on par as far as quality of parts fitment. The loading gate is smooter on the Ruger and doesn't bite your fingers as much. It's a good rifle for most applications, but as for a bear defense rifle and not being able to handle the heavier loads I'm a suspect of it. Last thing you would want with grizzly charging you is to have the rifle lock up. So for that purpose it would be a no for me. Luckily I live in Texas so that not an issue I have to deal with and it absolutely drops hogs in their tracks.

    I read in a press release that Ruger used a forged receiver as well, which I like. Probably needed to in order to keep the slim profile of that rifle. I wonder if we won't see a casting for the smaller caliber stuff where pressures and power are not as large a concern. Ruger's castings are top notch, so it doesn't worry me at all. Only drawback is they generally have to be thicker than a forged part which does mean they're wider and a little heavier.
    But if you're shooing a big magnum in one of these, maybe a little extra weight isn't such a bad thing.

    • @AldoSchmedack
      @AldoSchmedack Год назад +1

      Ruger is notorious for hard hardness in their castings. When they do go boom they REALLY go boom. But it may be too thick to effectively cast to such a high enough needed hardness hence the forging. Ruger's castings are a work of art. I still prefer forged then machined for most anything, even given the cost. I don't mind paying a ton more and owning fewer guns. I prefer quality. That said as an exception I love Rugers no matter. Own enough to need two hands to count all my Rugers.

    I have a 1895GBL, one of the Remington ones, and honestly I love it. Have the exact same rail and ghost ring setup on it too. Maybe I got lucky but it’s very smooth and seems nicely made to me.

    Hey MAC, I found a product you might be interested in. Brouwer Solutions makes a grip module for the P320 called the M1811. It's a frame designed to match the frame shape of a 1911 as closely as possible. As far as I can tell, it's a very recently released product. Seems like something you might like testing. I've got one on the way, so if anything, I'll update this comment later to provide a follow-up.

    Back in 2018 I picked up a Remington made 1895 SBL. I loved it and had no major complaints at the time. Ended up selling it, and after a short time I regretted that decision. Decided to get another one and wound up with a brand new Ruger made 1895 SBL that I have had for about a year now. I was extremely impressed with the improvement of the Ruger made vs the Remington made. The only real complaint I had with the Remington version before I experienced the new Ruger version was that the inside of the lever loop was not rounded off well enough. There was an edge inside the loop that would cut the skin on my knuckles when I actuated the lever bare handed. After getting my hands on the Ruger made SBL it immediately exposed all of the shortcomings of the Remington. The lever is nice and smoothly rounded inside so no more cut up knuckles. The loading gate is much better, it is softer and so much easier to load cartridges into the magazine. The fit and finish is leagues better. The tridium sight, fluted bolt which glides so much nicer and the threaded barrel were all welcome improvements. I absolutely love this Ruger made 1895 SBL. Thank you Ruger for taking over the Marlin name and doing right by it. Bet that I won't be selling this one!

I am using 53 grains of VihtaVuori N120 with a 200 grain Hammer bullet going a solid 2800 FPS. I shot 4 deer in Iowa last year with it all one shot kills. This load Hammers them.

  • @SuperRamcharger
    @SuperRamcharger Год назад

    Good Lord I miss my 1895 CB with an octagon 26" barrel. The fit and finish was amazing and with handloads from the Hornady manual that were Marlin specific, launching a 350 gr bullet @ 2400+ fps out of that long barrel was easy. I added a fold up peep tang sight and from the property I had at the time, I could knock sage bushes off the side of the mountain at what I thought was about 1/4 mile. Me and my buddy told the (young) local ranchers about it and they guffawed, so we invited them to check it out. They were amazed and stated that was closer to half mile! This was before laser range finders were affordable much less available and this is also in mountain territory so we really couldn't walk it off, but these guys hunted elk out there every year so they kinda' had a clue. They also were big 25-06 guys, flat long distance trajectory... I was lobbing the lead in like a mortar.. Having said as much, the new Ruger fit and finish looks good, but not like the "less than dollar bill" tight wood to steel that it used to be, all though way, way nicer than two credit card fit the Remington Marlins had. Does anyone know if the reloading manuals approve of the hot loads I used to use in the old real Marlins are OK in this new Ruger?

    I highly desire a Marlin 1895! But since you demonstrated the Smith & Wesson 460 I was wondering if you had ever thought about doing a project gun with the 45 raptor. It's basically a rimless 460 Smith & Wesson from an AR-10. And since both cartridges used 308 as the parent cartridge you still get 20 rounds in a standard AR-10 magazine. That's a lot of Firepower!

For what they are asking for these Marlins, Henry would still be my choice, though you do give up capacity in the Henry but with the removeable tube it does give you another option on loading the firearm, but who knows there still might be a Marlin in my future, they are definitely beautiful guns!
