Marlin in .416 Barnes anyone?
Just did a search and didn't find many posts on this cartridge. Is anyone out there working with Frank Barnes' wildcat in an 1895? What velocities and energies are you getting with 400-grain bullets? It sure seems like this might be a way to get African performance levels from a Marlin lever gun.
