RE: MavRacer
I think My question was: "Could you put a 38 super into a 357 Lever rifle." as I had past experience in shooting the 38 supers in my S&W's.
I did not ask if the Marlin would feed it. I was mostly concerned if the casing would be ejected.
1858 Indicated that the 38 super would go into the barrel and the bullet would eject, but the feeder jamed because it was too deep for the short 38 super.
VA27 said it would possibly be a minor alteration to the feed mechanism to solve that problem, but once altered one could only shoot 38 supers in it.
Then I ask you: Where would MCgunner have been without grandpa showing him how to reload? Which is where I would be!
I got my answer from 1858 as he was willing to go the extra mile to help find the solution. I appreciate his help and I bet 1858 will soon let his curiosity get the best of him and shoot a 38 super in his Marlin.
