For you guys with the side loaders, how do you deal with mashing your thumb to load the round? I just recently got an m94 and it sucks loading a round in it.

It's like butter. It will be a great rifle in .44 mag and larger revolver calibers when they make it available. I hopefully plan to use it in a couple of precision rifle (revolver caliber) events in CAS soon. Last edited by Vin63; 09-18-2013 at 6:30 AM.. Reason: typo |

My rifle holds 9, I normally use the tip of a 10th round to push the 9th in instead of my finger. no more pinching.

I felt the same at first. I just got used to it. Just like loading Garand clips, you really have to shove it in like a real man.lol.

Glue stick (for a glue gun) or short 5-6" dowel. It's kind of like a speed-loader for m94's. A lot of guys use them at the Cowboy Silhouette matches, where you need to load 5 rounds and be ready in 30 seconds.

Golfish, thanks, it is fun to reload the cartridges with a heel based cast bullet and up to a couple grains of Bullseye. The lightest loads are whisper quiet. Accuracy falls apart past 25 yards, lol.

These old .22s are accurate and have the heft and feel of the larger calibers.

Both are early 80s ranger 94's chambered in 30-30.
Top one has only a box of 20 rounds through it by me. Bottom I recently transformed into my deer rifle. Leupold m8-20 ier scout scope from 60s. And Leopold Detacho scout base and rings. With Wilson magazine tube sling clamp. Both leather covers I made, bottom one is a cheek riser version for the scope. |

Here's my Rossi r92
Took it to ASR today for some metal plate plinking. It's chambered in .357/.38 special, 16" barrel, with large loop lever. I added a bit of leather lacing to the lever. Doesn't really add that much padding, but since it took a bit of effort to put on, I'm too lazy to remove it, haha! It's a very fun gun! I let a friend fire it a few months ago and he put one in jail later that day! We took his carbine to the range and he was hitting the plates right out of the box. |

MY 1974 Winchester 94 in 30-30.
My pre Rem Marlin 1894C in 38/357. This would be my survival gun, if I had to narrow it down to just one.

Here's a scan of an old family photo. It's from my wife's side of the family. Check out all the cool levers!

I just push the round in most of the way and follow it with the next. On the last round, I hold the gate with my thumb's first knuckle as it gets to that point. Once the last round seats in I pull my thumb back and let the gate close. Even so, every once in a while she bites me.
