It's always been an ass kicker in my experience!It's in the ALMIGHTY .44mag according to S&W
If there's a better brush cartridge, I don't own it.

I agree, and I very much enjoy shooting 44 Mag and 357 Mag lever guns. If the deer keep coming out at 50 yds and under my 1895 GBL might have some competition.....I agree, it’s a good lookin’ 21st century lever gun.
Fair point, I love the ones I already have. I’d be willing to add a S&W if they’ll make one that’s not… well, one I like the looks of.think Marlin has you covered on that
Only other level guns I'm in the market for is a Savage 99 in .308 Winchester, a Browning BL-22, and another Rossi in .44 Mag.Nope. They can be "fixed". But, yeah, guess we got to get used to the look. But as long as I have my JM Marlin, and my Rossi 92, they may do as they wish. Not in the market for another lever gun. (I'm kind of liking the Henry 410 lever gun though, and I don't think it has the cross-bolt safety. Not sure. ?)
Oh yeah, love my Savage 99. It is a .30-30, made in 1914. I also have a pre-64 '94 Winchester, and a post-64. The Post-64, which was a pawn-shop junker, I made into a half magazine "trapper". With those and the Rossi and Marlin, I'm quite content. I'm not sure why really, but I'm liking the Henry .410 lever gun, or maybe the why is that I think it would be a pretty spiffy small game wilderness survival, with some wolf and cougar repellent capability at close range with Brenekke slugs.Only other level guns I'm in the market for is a Savage 99 in .308 Winchester,
That would be good, 1:20 should should work with a 300gr bullet. I have a Rossi 92 in .357/.38 with a 1:38 twist that does not do well with 180gr bulletsI believe I saw 1 in 20", I could be imagining things as well.
I have such a Rossi, I'd assume it has the same twist. I shoot 200 grain cast bullets, shoots those just fine. ??I have a Rossi 92 in .357/.38 with a 1:38 twist that does not do well with 180gr bullets
The 336 and 1895 are the same size. Probably the same receiver.
None of them are applicable to the .454. I doubt the 336 is any stronger than the 1894.
I don't know that it is. I do know that neither would handle the .454 cartridge.The 336 is stronger than the 1894.
The early 44mags were on 336 actions.The 336 and 1895 are the same receiver. The 336 is stronger than the 1894. There was a .44 Magnum based on the 336 from Marlin, if I recall it was the 366M? Please, forgive if I have that model incorrect. There was also an 1894 in .22 Magnum.
