Marlin 1895 Cowboy
 
This is my third 1895 and was the most difficult to find an accurate load for. I really wanted to tote this rifle around for bear this fall but it was giving me fits. I finally hit pay dirt today finding that it likes 51 gr of IMR3031 and Hornady 300 gr JHPs.
I was shooting 405 gr lead cast with IMR3031 and H4198 and these 300 gr bullets using H4198 (the 300 gr and 51 gr of H4198 shoot great out of my Guide Rifle) without much success.
