Yeah, I know, this was already announced in the Lever Action forum but that's not why I'm posting. This is big enough in the gun world that I figured you guys could take a moment out of arguing to see it. A lot of speculation is finally answered. First product is the 1895 SBL in 45-70 with a new serial number range starting with RM. They put the latest popular stuff on it - 19" threaded barrel, 6 lands and grooves (no Micro-groove), rail with a built in peep and FO front with tritium ring. Ruger MarlinThey did change the bullseye from black and white to red and white, so you still got something to cuss'em about.
Gunnery, gunnery, gunnery.
Hit the target, all else is twaddle!

I do well with a peep. My eyes aren't good enough for buckhorns any more.

Anyone already with a lever gun not own one on 45/70??
Seems a little boring
Isn’t 350 legend the straightwall now?
For those “muzzleloader people that get use a centerfire rifle”
Still can’t wrap my mind around that one but whatever, need meat for the baby and such

I have a bunch of lever action rifles and don't have 45/70 and surely won't buy one of these.
