a friend decided he wanted a 44 mag rifle and he preferred the win but best gun we could find at time was a very nice marlin with case color hardened lever ,trigger handle and gold inletted lettering. i'll look for pics not sure if i have any.This gun shoots great.Personally i prefer the marlin with flat top side eject instead of angle eject.I just read somewhere this morn about 44 mag rifle maybe in handloader about the marlin can be smithed to take a longer cast bullet and the winnie can not.
