Decided to pull my old 93 out and dust it off. This rifle was made in 1897 and is a little raggedy with a period stock repair and looks like a replaced for stock.
When i got her the sewer pipe barrel was impossible to bring back so had it lined with the correct .380 liner and now she shoots very well. Nice smooth action with a strong lock up. It wears an original Lyman receiver sight and a bead front. She is a joy to hold and wonder what kinda history she has behind her.
So I'd like feedback on loads you use in the 38-55. She has a " special smokeless steel " barrel and the " Marlin Safety " receiver. Great old rifle but would like to hear what others load in their 38-55's.
