Hi guys, just got my first marlin 1895 and was wondering if there was any one "gotta get" book/manual on reloading lead for the 45/70?
cheers

Lynmans good, I think the 47th eddition had a good article on reloading the 45/70.

Also, "40 years with the 45/70" by Paul A Matthews is a great book to have if your a 45/70 shooter/reloader/hunter.

Any book is available on the InterNet.
I also use and like "Lymans Cast Bullet" book and "40 Years with a 45/70". Be warned, if you use some of the max loads in your Marlin that you propably won't want to shoot from a bench. "I've fallen and I can't get up" makes perfect sense after touching off a bunch of powder under a bunch of lead in a rifle the same size as a Win 94.
