Feets / Collection / My build Big booms and little barrels.

Sighted in my Marlin 1895 and it only cost me $100 in ammo!

Love that Marlin lever action finish and its classic silhouette!

p.s. I think I just bought the exact same Cabelas soft case, too. I hope you like yours

I got the case for free with a rifle purchase, it has no branding on it. The shotgun fits perfect in the front which is pretty nifty.

Yeah, that front mini-case looks ideal for a Mares Leg shottie! How cool is that.

Does the bag also come with backpack straps?

Yes that’s the one! It’s not as comfy as a backpack but I’ve used it to hike short distances to shooting spots before.

And have you tried the bag as a makeshift shooting mat?

If the ground is dry, it will help keep your spent casings out of the leaves

I’ve used one I care for less for that purpose. The back of my truck worked well for that until I found out shooting from a stationary vehicle was actually illegal.

Have you tried a moving vehicle, LOLOL

I’ve left that lifestyle behind.

It’s definitely a good idea to help collect empties! I hate picking brass out of the snow.
