The .307 is too much for the Marlin 336. Marlin even admitted it.
So the Marlin is substantially weaker than a 94 Winchester?
Skidrow says " All above is BS. The bottom line is that Marlin wanted a proprietary cartridge. Just how hard is that to understand. Just like Winchester continued to mark M1894s 30 WCF long after Marlin was marking rifles 30-30 Winchester. Bottom line was that it was a Winchester developed cartridge named 30 WCF and that was held up in court when Winchester sued both Marlin and Savage. Thus the 30 WFC marking on Winchesters and 30-30 Winchester or just 30-30 on Marlins and Savages."
I agree. Skidrow's assertion sounds the more logical. Marlin produced the 356 and 375 that generate the same pressure as the 307. I think that the reason's had to do with marketing, not pressures.
