Some round or flat nose bullets should work.

I didn't think a 336 would handle the standard pressure of that cartridge.

I'd think you'd have a hard time getting that case to work in a 336

Browning offers the BLR in 223, I wonder how well they sell?

Pressure, mag tube inside diameter, feeding, extraction……..

Pick another door.

219 Zipper will duplicate the 223 and then some, designed for the 336 action, data available. The only thing wrong with it nobody wanted a 336 shooting .224 bullets. There are better solutions to shooting .224 bullets in a lever action than the 336. Even the 1894CL in 218 Bee never got anywhere other than to be collectable.

I believe that Phil Gostomski(sp?) a noted Oregon predator hunter used a BLR in 222 Rem when they first came out. A few old time pred. control hunters used the Sav. 99 in 250-3000 but the 99 in 22-250 never went anywhere either.

I owned a Browning BLR in 223 about 20 years ago, it was a shooter usually around an inch with 50 gr bullets.
I traded it in on a mini 14, ya stupid, I took a lot of critters with the BLR, and it never jammed even in sub zero weather coyote fox hunting on a snowmobile hanging on my back.
I liked it. had a neat little way that the forearm attached that gave it accuracy over a marlin or Winchester.
