Some would say that I should get a .45LC SAA for my revolver if I want to shoot cowboy action, but then .45LC wasn't originally chambered for rifles anyway. So if I decided to just get .44Mag all around, would that be sufficient?
If I only wanted to shoot .44 Special as my cowboy loads, is there any problem using that slightly shorter case in a modern 1894 Marlin rifle? Or does it have to be the .44Magnum length case?
I assume that the slightly shorter case is fine for a Vaquero or equivalent, but I want to be sure.
I don't own any .45 Colt guns, and I'm trying to avoid having to get one, unless I would be looked "down" upon by CASS shooters for not being authentic.
