Sidearms & Scatterguns Lever Action thread

Here’s one of my favorites. JM Marlin 336 Cowboy 30-30. I love the balance and it’s a good shooter, very consistent 1.5 moa or less with any ammo I stick in it. I scoped it just to see what it was capable of and shot it out to 600 yards on steel. I videoed with my iPhone on slow-mo through my spotting scope and you could see the bullet drop down at hit the 14x16 steel; I hit it 4 out of 5 times with the scope set at 4x so I could use the bottom of the reticle as an aiming point. Lots of fun. Now I play with it with open sights.

Suppressors Suppressed Contenders anyone

Unfortunately, my headstock is long. Around 20"
I'll probably end up pulling it from the action.

I had the same sort of problem with the contender… the latching block makes using the headstock impossible. So it was four jaw chuck and hours with an indicator or make a center!

Door number two was the best option!

Gunsmithing What are you guys using now days to clean and lube?

Understood. However I don’t know anyone that has died by cleaning firearms lol. Unless of course they were shot by said firearm lol

I do have specific firearms cleaning products. I just made this as it lasts longer. And I’ll outlive having to buy another bottle.
Fully respect it. Im exposed to so many things, and then in daily life it gets longer. None of it is good. Even just lawn care, there's ton of stuff, daily house hold cleaning etc.
