Home Forums Lever Action Central Big Bore Levers Max pressure for 1895 GBL?

Hi all,

I have a Marlin 1895GBL that's unfired in the gunsafe and I need to start reloading for

I have done a bunch of reading and I see that everyone has an opinion on the MAX CUP this firearm can handle.

I scoured the Marlin website and it does not specify the max pressure.

I've read to keep it at 28,000 CUP max, and others load it up t0 40k CUP.

Anyone have any thoughts or can someone point me to some definitive info?

thanks!

From what I've read 40K for the Marlins.

Just take a look at the pressure specs for the 450 Marlin. The rifles are the same guns.

I personally stay under that 40,000 listing for pressure!

I don't run mine real hard either.
