I can't believe I'm toying with the idea of trading my 1980 made 1895 for a .444 Marlin! I know, overall, the 45-70 will do everything the .444 will and then some but since getting the bolt action Mauser chambered in .444 back in December, I'm itching for a lever gun. The Mauser is nice but the 1 in 38 twist barrel really hampers what loads I can accurately shoot in it. This Marlin thing is insane! Do I need my head examined? :hmmmm:
