[QUOTE="Methow Packer, post: 1610212, member: 67515"] I have the Marlin Cowboy 26” 45-70 cowboy I’ve smoothed up and with a nice 3.5 trigger pull. I load hard cast wide flat nose bullets running close to 2000fps. It’s all I want to shoot. Plenty accurate with gost ring sights. Fits well on my horse right frt or left rear under the saddle bag. I have a lot of confidence with it. Never confronted a griz. Sure don’t want to but north central Washington by the boarder they’re coming in outfitter camps. Too bad. All I need in dangerous country. Plenty of rounds in the magazine. 8 I think. Quicker than a bolt. Lots of energy. Lots of recoil but the octagonal 26” barrel and limb saver pad makes it quite tolerable. I’ll hang on to this one forever. [/QUOTE]
