25-20 Ammo

Anybody out there have any tips on where to find 25-20 ammo? I have searched the web and it seems that everywhere I have looked they are out of stock or it is listed as a limited production item.

Re: Model 1894 carrier rocker spring variations

I've got an early Model 1894, 25-20 and it doesn't have a spring and I see no place to put one. My carrier and rocker look similar if not exactly the same as the one in your picture. Went to Numrich but there is no picture representation of the carrier (item 10 & 11) other than the poor image in...

Model 94 Stock Interchangeability

My father left me a 25-20 octagon barrel Marlin '94 (1894) rifle without a stock, guesstimated date of manufacture in the 1910's or 1920's. Having a hard time finding a replacement stock and wondering if anyone would happen to know of interchangeability with other Marlin models (1892, 1893, 1895, 33...
