Reflex,

Hope you get this message. Prior to the unfortunate demise of MT, I was following along on the developement of the 450 Marlin, 550 gr Crater load. I was looking forward to your load data. Sure hope you and many of the MT regulars make Beartooth your new home.

BABORE,
He's registered at leverguns.com . I emailed him for you and told him you were here and that you were looking for him.

Duckbill,

Thanks for the post. I went to Leverguns after posting here. Found his post in the Marlin Talk Orphans post. Thanks again.

Hey fellers. I just signed up over here. I replied to your e-mails a while ago. Looks like several of us have signed on here. I'll keep every one posted on the testing. I have some loads ready to go to the lab right now (45-70) that I was supposed to ship a couple of weeks ago. I'm still working on the nickel brass pressure thing. Hopefully I can get that behind me pretty quick. I need to get back with Mr. Young on the craters. As far as I know no one has already done any pressure work with them. If anyone reads this post and has already had pressure test done with the 550 Craters in the .450 Marlin and 45-70 please let me know. I'll still have to do my own but a head start would be nice. regards to all, reflex264
