I picked up a bit of a treasure as far as I can tell. I haven't had much time to research this gun but from the little I have learned it looks like a keeper. I went to an auction and got this gun for a bid of $300.00. The only reason I bought it is because I never heard of this gun/caliber before. It is a 1894 Octagon barrel Marlin 40-82 black powder lever action. Shot it today and it kicks like a mule and destroyed the oak block that I used for a target. It came with 2 boxes of original ammo and 1 box of reloades. I'm going to do more research next week to find out if I have something worth the $300.00 but any info I could get from the forum might help steer me in the right direction. Thanks for any help I can get.

I'll put some pics up if I can figure out how to do it. (I'm old and a bit senile) I don't even know if I spelled "senile" correctly LOL.
