Any opinions or tips about the Marlin .444. friend of mine is buying one and I thought I should try to find him some info. Where else would I go to do that ? ;D
-
All I know is that it is one hell've round.And thats right up there with the 45-70.

Does it kick HARD, Jims about 5'2" and 120 lbs. ?

Well the Leverguns forum has had endless debates about the 444 vs the 45-70. On that website look in the ARTICLES section and read what Paco Kelly has to say about the 444. I have one and load my own for it. Yes it's got a bit of kick to it.

I know several pig hunters that use them. I've seen a few shot with them, very simlar to wounds created by a warmer 45 70

Tom, that's just plain wicked. U R an evil man.
Here's one that won't kick, a Higgin's modified Ruger M77 in 44 Mag. Gotta keep it in 100 yards for large game subsonic...but with an integrally supressed barrel...man it's quiet. I got one on "backorder" right now pending funds. Some people think a supressed 160+/- grain 308 is bad...but handload something at 350-400 grains in this baby at the same velocity and you've got the real deal.

At 5'2" 120 lbs I hope you are there to pick him up, boy is he in for a SUUUPRIZE!! By the way how much are you going to offer him for it? ;D

I'm not really into lever rifles, I've already suggested some things he can trade toward. But he is a glutton for punishment, He also has a Super Blackhawk .44 Mag ;D the littlest guy on the firing line with the biggest cannon ;D

I have a freind at work that is small in stature and I tease him often by asking him if his legs still sing when he sits on the toilet. One time thoughI think we went a little to far as the dispatch area is about 4 feet above the floor and we put a childs booster seat in the chair for him, boy did he get mad. ;D
