Shot a bit on Saturday while I was out. Getting good groups with my 22" Marlin 45/70 but out of adjustment on the scope so out to Terry it goes. I was shooting 53g of 3031 with a remington 405g bullet. Both my 45/70 Marlins like this load and the GG with open sights will almost do what I can with a scope on the 22".
The black dot in the center is the size of a dime for refferance, sorry about the crappy pic

depends on who you are talking to.crazy_davey said:^ Since when is a .308 a big bore
If it's an old school TR shooter that also hunts, small bore would be anything nder .243, big bore over that.
I consider them big bores myself, but also own many 45 caliber rfles.

^ I was talking to chola who posted pics of his .308 group and then took them down after I asked. I dont consider a .308 a big bore.

Ah crap. I just threw out about a dozen of the targets I shot with this gun a week and a half ago. I thought nobody would be interested in seeing them. All the targets I shot were at 75 yards too. That is a great grouping.

Very nice! Both targets! Looks like I have a lot of work to do with my 1895GS & the Speer 400gr bullets.
