NEW Marlin 45-70 1895 SBL By Ruger Firearms

[@melissawestergard4923]

My hubby is the chief engineer at Ruger developing the engineering for manufacturing of Ruger Marlin guns. He has done a fantastic job. This is a beautiful rifle.

[@buildhuntxplore]

Hey Brian, it's Jake with Tacticon Armament. Met you out at the PSA booth at Shot Show (I was the guy talking about the 45-70 Marlin that had the same furniture as the AK, and similar to the above rifle you're holding). I've been cruising through your videos and I've got to say I'm impressed brother! Keep up the great work!

I hope they release the dark series, I am however buying this purely to support Ruger. This is miles ahead of my brother in law's Remington SBL.

I have a new Ruger made SBL in .44 magnum, and I'm taking delivery of a new 45-70 Trapper this week. The first "Remlins" did have some problems. However, the later "Remlins" were CNC machined, and are quite a bit better. The stocks fit better as well.

I think all of us Marlin fans are excited to see how this venture works out, and most have a couple old favorite models that we hope will be resurrected. Me? I want but know I’ll never see are the 1894 in 41mag and a new Texan. Both in stainless would be amazing!

Awesome job Ruger! The threaded muzzle is really great for us in the UK because moderators are more or less the norm and do not require any extra paperwork or costs as long as you mention it when you apply for the calibre on your firearms certificate.

New sub here. I owned an original Marlin for 50 years, here in AR. I bought it in like new condition, adding my 1903 Springfield to lower my cash requirement! I used it on uncountable numbers of our smallish deer as well as feral hogs! The micro-groove barrel really liked the Winchester 315 grain loading, and the beauty of that selection was what it did to game. They always died properly, never running more than 50 yds., +/-, their internals in ruins! Now retired from pursuits afield, I'll pass the rifle and scope to my Colorado nephew, perhaps it'll add several elk to its' imaginary notches!? Thanks for your channel, Teddy Roosevelt had it right about 45-70s, they rule!

It’s definitely one of my favorites too

[@brettbishop3005]

I have a Marlin 1885 GS and used it to walk the beaches in Alaska. Using Remington 405 grain almost exclusively, but never having to shoot in self defense. The cartridge is loud going off, but the recoil is really mild, it's rolling thunder. If you see bear up north (Alaska Brown's) you will know it's the best defense to have. So I applauded the copy of the Marlin, I know it is a gun you can shoot all day, comfortably

[@VincitOmniaVeritas7]

I got a late production Remlin (when they where trying to improve quality control but it was too late) that doesn’t have the finish problems you pointed out. However, one thing that let me down is the finish on metal parts that you can only see when you disassemble the gun. The tool marks on the lever mechanism are huge!

[@lukaszimmermann2215]

I have a 1894c from 2019. The quality is ok, toolmarks and a few sharp edges but far from horrible. Function 100%

I've owned a lot of different firearms, from savage to Fierce and most in between.

I used to have a remlin SBL but I sold it once i heard that Ruger bought marlin because I was very underwhelmed with the Remington made rifle and I was just sure the Ruger would be a gem. Looks like I made the right call...

[@msgtpauldfreed]

They've brought the Marlin name back to what it was when it was truly Marlin. I had a Marlin 30AW in the 80's and early 90's and it was awesome. It was so smooth and a tack driver. I hated having to sell it when I got orders to England in 1996. Didn't have someone I could trust to keep it for me at the time. I have a Remington built Marlin 336 now and while it's fun, it's not as good as my AW. I look forward to getting my hands on a Ruger made 1895, I've always wanted a 45-70. It's a Thumper!

[@chrissinclair4442]

If your that worried about the parts on the Remlin, I would sale it. I have the 357 with threaded barrel and thinking of saving it. First center fire I ever bought was a 336CS in the 90s. Probably the most accurate center fire I ever got out of the box. It's a 30-30. I never understood why people would say Lever guns aren't that accurate because my 30 30 is such a tack driver.

The true potential in the 45-70 is premium ammo like Buffalo bore or hand loading. There is specific load data for 1895’s and it’s almost a different cartridge by comparison to most factory loads.

Used Marlin 1895 SBL 45-70’s are going for $2500+, so will be interesting to see prices when Rugers find their way to market in ample supply, if that ever happens. I’m thankful I picked up a Marlin several years ago before Remington went through bankruptcy. I paid $850.

Retailers are scalping the hell out of them for $2000+ when the msrp is only $1400. It'll be at least a year before the average person finds one of these for a decent price.

Had a JM Marlin 1894 in .357 that was just gorgeous. Sold it for an insane profit, then bought a Remlin 1894 in 2017 and could not believe just how bad it was. Spent money and time trying to get it reliable, but gave up and sold it. Replaced it with a Henry Black. Much better. Hard to believe that some folks still think that the Remlins are just as good as the JM Marlins. So thankful that the reviewer is intelligent enough to recognize the clear differences in quality between this new Ruglin and the aforementioned abominable Remlins. Looking forward to Ruger releasing the "new" 1894 and hopefully some tactical versions for those of us who use lever guns the way they were intended; on the trail and in the woods.

It's a hoot taking long shots at rocks, at ranges lever guns aren't traditionally thought capable of. Believe it or not the 45-70 long held, a long range record established many decades ago.

You just earned another subscriber. My dad's old lever action Marlin 30-30 was the first big boy's rifle (non-.22) that I ever shot, and I loved that gun. I took my first few deer with it before I "upgraded" to a .270. I love the fact that another company is carrying the torch for that model's aesthetic, and is actually doing a good job of it for a change. I may have to pick up one of these. The curved pistol grip and slightly looped lever is perfect, and the fact that it's all stainless and laminate (and thereby weatherproof, as long as you take care of it) is just amazing. And the fact that it's a 45-70 instead of a 30-30 is honestly even better. That's become one of my favorite rounds. I don't mind the recoil, and they will definitely reach out and touch something as long as you understand the ballistics and ask nicely. This looks like a great gun

Threaded barrel and fiber optic sight are definitely a big plus as it was one of the reasons I got my Henry Model X, now I have more reasons to get a Marlin as well.

great vid bud. i gotta say , i have the remington version and i think i got a darn good one. first off, mine is smooth and crisp in the action. fit and finish is perfect and other than the pre threaded(which is cool) i don’t see much of a difference in mine to your ruger version. not to mention how many people have offered to buy mine off of me. you shouldn’t have any problem getting rid of it if that’s what you’re planning on doing. good luck and can’t wait to see the next vid on that ruger. congrats.

That just looks perfect,gotta keep Marlin alive.

Great review , especially liked the comparison between the new Ruger and the older Remington versions. Anxiously anticipating the results of your grouping with various brands of ammo.

[@FlyingHighVeteran]

I finally managed to pickup this rifle a few days ago. Took me almost a year to get & thankfully I didn’t have to pay over list to get it. Totally agree-this rifle is awesome even the older Marlins I had when I was younger don’t compare. So excited to finally get it and look forward to hunting with this fall.

Great review, I said from day one that Ruger would bring back Marlin to it's glory day's and more.

[@buildhuntxplore]

Thank you!! I'm so excited to see what they all the bring back and what the bring out that's new.

Lovely, I bought a marlin, laminate stock but short barrel, really like it, but this Ruger looks excellent.

[@jd291]

Thanks for the information. I've been waiting for Ruger to start the production of the 'Marlin' lever rifle for awhile now but really wasn't sure if the wait would be worth it. I was considering Henry but I think you just made up my mind, thank you.

[@buildhuntxplore]

You're welcome! Yep, you need this gun. Thanks for watching!

[@michaelwells7311]

I love this rifle. I'm just starting to learn about them, so has is it to find ammo for it.

[@ajfornes6728]

Amazing video. Really appreciate all the detail you went into about the differences of the two rifles. Now I’m just waiting and hoping that there will be a .357 version soon haha. It would be such a beauty!

[@cobblerama]

My understanding is yes they'll be avail in 44 and 357 mag. Supposed to ship those soon but I'm still waiting. My source was March '22 issue of Shooting Times. Excellent review. Not sure how they gauge their date as it's only January but that's whats on the cover.

[@ajfornes6728]

@@cobblerama You just made my day with this news! Really appreciate the info! Hope they ship soon and we’ll all be able to get our hands on one haha, thank you again.
