Rr, no mercy has me just about convinced to hold onto it. It isn't hurting anything there in the safe, and it certainly won't lose value.

No mercy, thanks for the thorough response. I
hadn't even considered looking for a matching Marlin. But I've seen them sell for not much more than a .45-70. That would get me back into a Marlin but still be unique and something different.

It sounds like for my needs the .45-70 is still the way to go between those three options listed.

I have no issues with the .375 win performance. Three deer is a small sample size, but it's been two bang flops and the third left a 30 yard blood trail that was easy to follow.
