Marlin Trapper in 10mm

Those groups are at 25 yards? Something wrong there.

@Robin The black bull was the only thing shot off the bench. I fired two rounds of each type of ammo to see where they shot and which one the gun liked best. The groups were fired Off hand, running it as fast as I got the sight on target. The rifle shoots fine, a bit to the left but it will shoot better than I can hold. I am no spring chicken at 25 yards if I can keep all the bullets in the boiler plate while emptying the tube like it was on fire, I am good with it.

Ive been tempted to get a 10mm rifle. My edc is a glock 20, so it makes sense. I have a few 357 magnum rifles and a couple 44 magnum rifles, but no 10mm yet.
Honestly, id probably never use it for anything but plinking.....very expensive plinking.

Factory 10mm is a bit pricey.
Years ago I stocked up on Brass and components, so it's not that much an issue, and I've been able to pick up partial boxes and/or Lots at Auction.
I bought one of BCA's 10mm Carbines that uses Glock 20 Mags and it's been reliable with everything it's been fed.
Back to the Marlin's; I find it interesting that "Pistol Caliber" Rifles are often more expensive than essentially the same in a standard like 30-30...
