My experience has been much better accuracy wise with my 1894S 41mag and 1894 44mag.

Got the 41 new in '84 and it still likes 210gr XTPs at over 1700 fps with H110 or LilGun.

Nosler 240s do well with similar loads in the 44.

1000 fps lead loads and 1500 fps plated bullets do well in both too.

The one that's a battle is the 25-20, but just because of the cavernous chamber.


There is no retreat but in submission and slavery!
