I had good luck with them in my 20” bbl’d 1984 Marlin, with a stiff load of 4227.

Lots of good cast and gas checked bullets out there now too.

I’m not a fan of the Gucci, poly tipped bullets in lever guns..... but that’s just me.
Hahahaaa gotcha on the Gucci... too funny, I’m just trying to 1) use up some of the booolits I have hoping they might shoot (good groups) and 2) cause it’s a trapper at the end of the day, perhaps a big wish...but a reasonable 2-3” group with enough snuff to knock down a mowich, at 100m or so.

Have a 1894 SS Marlin in 44 Mag and that fawker has never shot to what I feel it should. Actually gave up on it, never have been able to have it consistently shoot, (way too long a story for here)... So I’m hoping this win 94AE will be better.
Thanks for your input.
