.44 Mag Handi?
« on: October 19, 2007, 07:25:13 AM »
I hunt with handguns for the most part, but I have been thinking about getting a Handi-Rifle in .44 mag. What kind of accuracy can I expect for a .44 mag Handi? Do your loads for handgun shoot accurately in your rifle? Are the throats cut deep enough to handle long/heavy (320 gr) bullets?

2007 production 44mag barrels shoot good, Marlin started making the barrels this year,  so I wouldn't hesitate to buy one, either as an accessory barrel which I myself ordered the end of August, or a complete rifle, just make sure it has an NX serial number prefix.  ;)
