If I remember off the top of my heaf it's an 1894 model. I am talking it hunting here in a week once the season opens up

First time i have shot a gun this year and man it feels good to get out. I bought a marlin lever action chambered in 44 magnum several months ago and finally got to put it through the paces
Got a whole box through and I have to say that is one sweet smooth shooting rifle. Incredibly accurate...
Still haven't been out to the range. Been very busy with work and the kiddos. So im just gonna bring the kiddos with to get them started on some more shooting! Love that they share the same passion for shooting as I do!

My reload data includes a 300 gr bullet. I dont know that I was planning to use that but supposedly it will. Guess now I gotta find out, huh?

It is one hell of a scope! Leupold 3-9 , came with the gun. All in all, 500 bucks for gun, scope and about 100 cartridges

Thanks for all the feedback y'all! My buddy and I are both in the Navy, hes transferring and needed it to go.
I do plan to shoot factory starting out, mostly because i dont have the proper material to produce ammo for it. That is coming very soon. I'm ITCHING to get out to the range with this...
Was able to get a new rifle today! Buddy at work is moving and wanted to sell off his 44. Basically brand new 1894 marlin 44. Stoked because i can use this sucker to deer hunt in Ohio. Itching to get out to the range!

Got my first deer of the season this morning. Had a 9 point walk behind me, usually they follow the trail toward me but today he walked across the field.....where the huntet behind me, laying beside his truck nailed him. Bittersweet, but he got an amazing buck. I ended up shooting a nice doe...
Well how about an update.
Its FINALLY cold here in central Ohio. Ive got a proper stand and LOTS of signs of deer. Rather large prints all over the property but still not seeing much of anything during the day. Hoping this cold snap sticks and forces them out a little more during the day time...
It was mentioned home defense a couple posts in. We found a Remington hone defense 20 gauge for about 280. It fits her ok but still iffy about the caliber. I keep telling her it wont matter at 10 feet!
