Four years ago this month, I bought the Guide Gun (45-70) which I had wanted since Marlin introduced it. I bought it from a fellow fire member....new in box. Soon after, I bought an Accurate Molds’ bullet mold for a 430 grain WNFP. Two years ago, I got around to casting some bullets. The rifle was still new, until a week and a half ago! I powder coated, gas checked some bullets, and ran a few downrange. These were the results! Pretty pleased, and wishing I’d done this 4 years ago!

I’ve only fired 10 rounds so far, put new bases/rings on the scope this morning, and hoping to shoot it a bit more soon! memtb
