RE: Marlin .32 leverguns
not worried about collectibility... this is gonna be a shooter/beater for 'yote, squerzel, bunny, woodchuck.. you know.. small game.
the only reason I wanted the Cowboy model, is it has a larger magazine (10 vs 6) and a cooler looking barrel... but who's the schmuck that decided to chamber the Cowboy Action gun in a modern cartridge (.32 H&R)? I thought maybe they were thinkin' you couldn't get .32-20 ammo anymore, but then the dorks come out with a MODERN gun in .32-20? Huh?
It's gonna get handloaded for either way... I can get another 400 fps or so out of the WCF cartridge... which in an 85 gr pistol bullet is gonna make a flatter trajectory (yeah yeah I know the 32-20 is supposed to have a 100 gr slug)...
I just need something to whine and moan about..
