Don't know where you got your info bud but you are incorrect. The ammo companies I mentioned load ammo FOR the Marlin 1895. I've yet to hear of anyone who's 1895 couldn't handle those rounds. If you load a round too hot for the 1895 then skip the 450 (which offers no performance value) and...

I have a guide gun in 45-70. It's a very versatile round. Most factory rounds are loaded very mild (for use in older firearms) and have very little recoil. Some companies (Buffalo Bore, Grizzly, Corbon, Garrett) also sell fully loaded max power rounds for use in strong firearms such as Marlin...

I'm interested in hearing about some techniques and equipment that people use to shoot long range in cold environments. Anything from clothing choices to how you set up your shooting location (sit and ambush). By cold weather I mean 10 degrees F to below 0 with snow on the ground. It's a lot...

Tabata training is great especially if you have limited time to workout. A tabata exercise can be completed in only 4 minutes. It falls under the category of high intensity interval training. It consists of 20 seconds of intense training followed by 10 seconds of rest. You do this for 8...
