The last couple of years I have been deer hunting with a Marlin 1894 in 44 mag. I hunt canyons and wheat fields in Nebraska. I often see deer at 1/4 mile or so. I have several rifles and all of them are better suited for the style of hunting I am engaged in. I am not a serious deer hunter, only buy doe tags, so i don't mind if I don't have a shot. I am not sure why I have such a compulsion to hunt with the 1894. Maybe because it's like archery that does not require practice. Any one else using an "odd" rifle?
