I think I'm in love...
I just picked up a new to me Marlin 1894 in 44 Magnum. It is an older one without the side safety pain in the ***. I believe that it is an 1981. Now I used to have one a couple of years ago that I bought new, but ended up selling it to make ends meet when I couldn't work. Anyways, I got another one, and I think that I like this one better. I know that from what I shot so far, it seems to group better. I like the 44 in a levergun for its hard hitting semi heavy rounds with fairly light recoil. I shot a deer with my old one and it was a bang flop with no wasted meat. I know that they aren't known for being a tack driver, but where I hunt there aren't too many shots over 75 yards and this rifle is perfect for that. Does anybody else have an experience with the 44 mag in a levergun?
