45-70 Leverevolution in my Browning 1886(s)

Post by SJPrice »

I have found that the factory Leverevolutions are accurate in both of my Browning 1886(s), a SRC and a 26" rifle. The problem is they do not feed reliably from the magazine tube. it will feed two or three just fine and then the other five or six hang up in the tube. Has anyone else experienced this problem? Both of them feed any other ammo just fine.

the .444 marlin le's are not reliable in my bigbore 94 winchester, therfore i don't use them anymore. hornandy made a great 265 grain flatnose loading, which they stupidly discontinuded :x :cry: :cry: :cry: . these things don't work. :roll:

My Japanese Winchester feeds them and shoots them very well. I killed a nice eight pointer with it.
