Of all the Marlins I've had over the years the 1894 in 44 Mag is my least favorite. Seems like the bores on this particular model are oversized more than other calibers. I ownd a couple and never could get either to shoot a group of less than 1.5" @50 yards with jacketed bullets.
Since I own a 444 & 45-70 both of which will shoot a 3 shot group less than an inch @100 yds the 44's departed my company.
