The secret Tactical Edition Dark Series 45-70 Govt. performs Sub-MOA as a Lever Action from Ruger
While sighting in my new Ruger Marlin 1895 45/70 Govt and using Hornady 325 Grain FTX LeverEvolution ammo, I am able to get Sub-MOA at 100 yards with a Vortex Scout Crossfire II 3x7 optic. This was only my 2nd time firing my first Marlin Lever Action. The first time was only to season the barrel and was only shooting out to 50 yards using their Ghost Ring sights. This was much more fun shooting compared to my long-range precision bolt-action rifles.
