Questions & Answers
Cimarron 1874 Sharps Sporting .45-70 Government 32" Octagon Barrel Case Hardened Frame Deluxe Wood Standard Blued Finish. Will this ammo work with thi Expert Answer

The Barnes Vor-Tx .45-70 Government 300gr TSX FN Rifle Cartridges will fire in the Cimarron 1874 Sharps Sporting chambered in 45-70 Govt. However, Cimarron Arms recommends certain ammunition not be fired in their firearms. For this reason I recommend contacting Cimarron Arms to confirm that your rifle can safely fire this 45-70 ammo without damaging the rifle.

Are these cartridges safe to fire in Marlin 1895? Expert Answer

These Barnes Vor-Tx .45-70 Government 300gr TSX FN Rifle Cartridges are flat nose cartridges designed for use in lever actions with magazine tubes. So they will work in a Marlin 1895 chambered in 45-70.

Helpful Positive Review Excellent performance on Ruger/Marlin 1895 SBL by Jim from Wisconsin, Verified Owner, May 4, 2023
With a Burris Scout scope this ammo produces 1" groups at 100 yards. This is the best ammo I tested yet from this rifle. I have had excellent results from most tsx and ttax bullets and ammo from Barnes.

Increase in ammunition demand continues to exceed supply for specific calibers and box sizes, particularly specialized rifle ammo and many shotgun shells. Ammo prices increased due to the more expensive cost of production. You can continue to place backorders for ‘out of stock’ ammo to reserve your place in line for available inventory. We do not charge credit cards until orders are ready to ship. Due to volatility and supply challenges, we reserve the right to cancel any backorders or orders. Learn more.
