----FOUND ONE, THANKS----

Looking for a new or like new 1894C in .357. If I've got my model numbers correct it's the straight stocked rifle with 18 1/2" round, blued barrel.

I read on a Marlin forum not too long ago that a fellow bought one at a Cabelas store in Febuary for under $500.00, my local dealer wants $595.00 out the door. Might be worth a call. Dave.

Thanks Dave,
Might be worth a trip to Cabelas. My local dealer quoted me $500 plus tax but can't find one so am trying the secendary market (MSRP is $560)

just a head up.....

some of these have problems.take some dummy rounds with you to make sure it will feed 357 and 38 special ammo.

as far as shooting
the 173 keiths are doing pretty good in 38 +P brass

Thanks for the heads up, Pete. I had a similar problem with a 336 and found that I was cycling the action too slowly. Looks like you found the right load for yours, nice group!
