Home Forums Lever Action Central Lever Actions - General Mossberg 464 Brush Gun?

I have the 20 inch, blued version. It groups about 1.75 inches at 100 with Lyman 311041 173 gr. cast bullets.

Initially, I had a feed problem. When I cycled the action briskly (or slowly for that matter), about half the time the cartridge would hang up and not go into the chamber.

The action was stiffer than what I was used to. I worked the lever quite a bit and cycled a box of Win cartridges through it several times. The problem lessened. It took a couple hundred shots before the feeding settled down.

I put a red dot sight on mine, but have to find a decent cheek riser for it.
