I would like to start hand loading for a Marlin lever gun. Due to feeding issues, some bullets work better than others.
The load in mind is a Beartooth 185gr with gas check. It supposedly will run about 1,600 fps out of a carbine length barrel. The barrel has a 1/16 twist
It would be nice if this round would also work in my 28-2 with 4” barrel.
Does anybody know what the twist rate of a 28-2?
Do you think a 185gr would stabilize?
