Model 94, 7-30 Waters advice.

They do work well. I say that ......... I won't be drilling my 141 for a sling either.

My Marlin had it's bullseye drilled out and a swivle in it when I got it. Now that is blasphemy!

Indeed! ..... At least, if you so desired, you can replace that stud with another bullseye and bring it back to original without leaving any extra holes. BTDT.

you guys are pressing my M94 buttons..............
spring does this also.

Correct. Not sure why, but I have a high disdain for aftermarket slings on a lever gun esp a pre-64 94 or pre-safety 336. They certainly do have a practical use.

What about pink flipfloppy butt pads??

The 7-30 is so much fun. I bought one in the box also. Had to strip it to get it to work as the oil was all gummed up. It shoots 120’s, 139’s and 155’s very well. I was lucky and have a stockpile of bullets for mine. I use 30-30 range pick up brass and resize/fireform.

Congrats on an excellent rifle

Thanks, with this gun it’s kind of the beginning of the end of owning guns for purely practical reasons for me. Recently I clipped and filed some 200gr soft points and loaded them in my 30-30 over some 3031 powder. They shoot really well. I’m considering doing the same with some .284 160gr speers I have lying around. How’s the trigger on your’s. And in fact does anyone have any suggestions for 80’s-90’s era crappy Winchester triggers?

Also, toebako, what do you use for a bullet/charge when you fire-form? Have you ever checked your accuracy/velocity when fire forming?

Cheers

I just scored 200 x Hornady 139gr flat point projectiles off #######. The same guy still has 200 x 115gr hollow points (in .284).

Great find. Those bullets are scarce.

That's a good website.

Congratulations! That fellow is good to deal with --- I've bought some hard-to-find supplies from him in the past.

Thanks for the reassurance. I really enjoy the benefit of making transactions on this site. It’s a little more buyer beware on GP and TP.
