I cleaned them and cut them into complete sides, down the middle of the backbone. They weigh about 13 lbs each so just about perfect for my grill.
That is the kind of story I like to read, good shooting, looking forward to hearing more. Nice choice of rifles for getting in close.

I gotta get a "real" Winchester in .32-20. Might cost too many bucks.

Thanks guys. Yeah, the 32-20 Win is sweet. When Marlin offered the "CL" I waited a bit and found clea, used rifles in 218 Bee, 25-20 Win, & 32-20 Win. Hunting for those rifles is probably the best hunting trip I been on and I'm really glad I own them.

Michael,

Did you use your TLC313-115-RF? I have the mold NIB, just haven't cast any for my 1894CL yet. I'm currently burning-off a large stash of BTB 313"-115g, which I push with #2400/9.0gr.

I have no .32-20 firearm yet but I have 2XX brass, new Lee dies, 2XX cast bullets. No mold. :)

I'm pretty sure that NOE can fix the mold part of that. I just looked at "Completed" auctions on GunBroker and the Marlin 1894CL are still closing pretty reasonably. Sure, there some rifles listed for over a grand but they don't sell, they are just relisted over & over again.
