The .450 Marlin, Made for the guide guns. Check out <A HREF="http://www.marlinfirearms.com" TARGET=_blank>www.marlinfirearms.com</A> <P>I understand it is the equivelant to the 45-70 without the worry of blowing up old rifles and stronger, better designed brass.<P>Mike

I have one and I love it. A max load of RL7 and the 350gr Hornady FP yields 2100 fps and .85" at 100 yds. I also use the 300 gr Lasercast bullet at 1300 fps with 15 gr of Unique and it is very accurate for a practice load. The max load has a very healthy recoil!
