Found this thread on one of the boards I visit. Naturally tool late!

Both my lever guns are 450 Marlins, but recently I've been thinking maybe on giving a Marlin 1895 Cowboy in 45/70 a try. Had I seen this deal sooner, it might have been just the excuse to buy one. This deal was located within an hours drive, could have picked it up in person. 29 boxes of 20 rounds, plus 40 once fired cases for $250.

1 case (25 boxes of 20 rounds) of Federal Classic 4570A (300 grain flat nose HP), $15 per box/$375 for the case.

Shipping charges would have to be calculated to your zip code.

If anyone in the L.A. area can pick it up from my location, take the case for $350.

Could you tell me what shipping would be to 69357, Mitchell, NE? If shipping is not too bad I'd like some boxes. Thanks.

It depends on the weight, Doc, so it's hard to say. The whole case is 33 lbs. 5 boxes should weigh about 7 lbs., and would cost about $10-12 to your location.

If anyone is in the area and can meet me here, you can have it for $325, along with an extra 4 boxes (80 rds.) that I dug out of storage (and 2 boxes of fired shells for you reloaders).

$280 takes it-- that's less than 50 cents per round...
