| Marlin 1895 Lever will not close ?!?! While shooting my handloads the other day, the lever does not close, ok, I take that back, it does close, but pops right back open again. I am shooting 430 grain lead slugs, with 50 grains of H322. the bullet goes about 1,935 FPS. I got this load info from a reloading magazine. So could somebody help?
