I shoot an 1894 Marlin in .45 Colt. I also shoot American Pioneer powder, which is a BP "Sub".
I wish I knew what I do now before I bought what I did!!!
My rifle is pretty much clogged after a match. If I had gone with a 44-40 or a .357 I would be way ahead.
The wife shoots the same powder in hers, at the end of the match, run a patch or three down the barrel and good to go. Mine, the action has to come apart, ALL OF IT to get the crud out of it. BUT, I likes the smoke. I'd run Black, but dealing with having to use special lubes is too much of a hassle.


A gun in hand is worth two cops on the phone.
