I shoot a Marlin 1895 Guide Gun in .450 Marlin. My ammo is the LeverEvolution 325 gr.. I also have the large loop lever, but I use a ghost ring site. I hunt in heavy cover and swamps in northern Maine. The gun is a beast. When you hit something it goes down, love that gun.

Being 1 state over I do the same type of hunting. Though I use different ammo the results are the same.

Love my Marlin in 45-70. 405SP puts everything down with one shot. Wish these newer rifles came with ladder sights like the older rifles had.

As an Alaskan I have to show some love. Subbed too!

I always liked the .45-70 in a strong single shot like a ruger no1 or H&R handi rifle. They can take some seriously hopped up loads that will get a 300gr barnes bullet out of the muzzle at around 2500fps

BHR makes the 500 S&W Spike Driver now hopefully they will make one so I can purchase one. I'd love to have one like yours that 50-110 that's everyone's Holy Grail rifle. You are fortunate enough to own two holy grail guns the 50-110 and 45-100. You ever need anyone to take them off of your hands ✋️ I'm down.

I love every lever gun you have here, but I spent the majority of my life in Alaska and proudly what lever my father bought around 1968 is my Winchester model 71 converted to the .450 alaskan, i can find a video here on you tube of anyone shooting or talking about this amazing rifle and round, my 71 was converted in coopers bay Alaska by Harold Johnson, all the lever guns you are shooting are beautiful and plenty of rifle for alaska, but there is something magical about my Winchester 71, i do own a Winchester 71 deluxe in .348 as well, if ya ever get the opportunity to do a video on the .450 please do, and yes the .450 alaskan and .50 alaskan are absolutely thumpers, i buy amm from reeds ammo and research and have had absolutely no issues with thier loads and i do reload as well thank you for your video

The .450 Alaskan was developed on the Winchester Model 1886 and later the model 71 rifles by Harold Johnson of Cooper Landing, AK. Johnson later sold his gunsmithing business to William Fuller. Fuller developed the .50 Alaskan. The .450 Alaskan rifles built by Johnson were called Johnson Kenai Rifles. They used Buhmiller barrels.

You really need to handload the 500 S&W to make a fair comparison. Nobody factory loads the 500 S&W to anywhere near it's full potential because it would be to difficult to extract several spent cases at once fro a double action revolver. Loaded to it's potential it matches the 50-120 from the model 89.

Thought I read before there are 50-90 and up cartridges along with the 45-70 I'd like to see.

The .450 Marlin casing is derived from the .458 Winchester magnum, no sourcing from the .45-70 Gov't casing. The Winchester 1886 platform was once chambered for .50-110 Win. You can still get brass from Starline for .50-110 and barrels made to adapt to the current production 1886 in .45-90. With a well developed load from .50-110 in smokeless powder, you can achieve .458 Lott power. Even up to 6400 ft-lb.

The 2016 Remington made Marlin 1895 CB 45-70 Is one of the finest Marlin lever guns you can own!! 18.5 inch octagonal barrel, dark American Walnut forearm and butt stocks, semi buckhorn rear and gold bead front sights, this Marlin lever gun cannot be matched by any other in all the categories that matter. This model made by Remington is extremely accurate, the same accuracy as my Remington 1968 BDL 30-06 700. Remington as far as I am concerned is the best of the best when it comes to any rifle build!! Shooting is believing, I believe!!

You chambered it like you scared of it 😅

I have a Marlin 1895 in 45-70 with a 26 inch barrel and 9 round tube. It's my favorite gun when it comes to shooting feral pigs. Especially with 430 grain hardcast Buffalo bore ammo. Not a single hog has managed to run after being hit by one of those. They all dropped where they stood.

I believe the 45-70 is superior to the .450 Marlin chambering. Shoot one of the HSM RNFP 430 grain 45-70 rounds and you will know what I mean. Or try one of the Grizzly 460 grain rounds of 45-70.

All of these lever guns on the table are weak and short-range cartridges that lose energy very quietly. As an Alaskan Hunting guide since 1989 rarely have I seen a 45-70 being used in Alaska because for large and dangerous bears there is far superior rifle cartridges to be used when your life is on the line against large bears that mean to kill you. I have been using a Winchester Mod - 70 in 338 win mag loaded with 225 grain Barns TSX bullets and a CZ 550 in 9.3x62 Mauser loaded with the 286 grain Barns TSX bullets to match the commercial loads of the 375 H&H magnum. My next hunts I will be using my AR 10 I have chambered a Pac Nor super match barrel in 375 - 300 WSM so I am able to get semi auto rifle in the magnum 375 - 300 WSM cartridge for fast cycling of all cartridges when speed is a must have. I build to sell AR 10 uppers in all of the commercial WSM cartridges and in WSM wildcat cartridges. The largest is a 458 WSM AR 10 upper.

@@lurebenson7722 I don't doubt what you say. However, the .45-70 is no pushover and with correct loads (the key), it's about as good as anything and as handy as anything up close for bear defense (not as a main hunting choice). There are .458 diameter bullets for the .45-70 that penetrate beyond belief and you don't need to spit a piece of lead at the speed of light to get the job done. No bear can run faster than even a .22 short rimfire. Crushing tissue, deep penetration, and a decent sized hole is all that is necessary to get the job done on any animal, regardless of how fearful and imposing that animal is. There's bigger and badder cartridges yes, but get something loaded stoutly and .45-70 will penetrate through large sized maple trees. Besides, large high pressure magnums aren't something a lot of people can handle, shoot well, and achieve the sort of followup-shots like a lever action can deliver. Semi-autos take some tuning to function correctly and they are prone to difficulties. .338 magnums, the .375 H&H, even some speedy .30 cal stuff is fine. But a .458 sized hole and a 500gr hunk of crushing hardcast lead isn't going to stop at a couple of bones.

50 Alaskan is undervalued too much. It is an ammo that should be a priority for the major players to produce. Also, the 450 Marlin is superior to the 45-70 in that the rim is belted, so it can be used in bolt action, etc. Therefore, it is superior to the 45-70 in terms of warhead convenience. Therefore, the convenience of the warhead is superior to that of the 45-70, so in a sense, it is a superior warhead, but if it had been introduced half a century earlier, it would have been dominant...
