RE: Lever rifle matches
Kurt, I have and sometimes shoot a Marlin in .375 Winchester. My gun, however, and other Marlins as well, will chamber .38/55 ammo quite easily. I'm thinking that Marlin just quietly gave them .38/55 chambers while the barrels have a 1 in 12" twist. Not a bad gun at all. I stopped a black bear with mine back about '85, using factory 250 grain ammo. And mine wears a Lyman 66. Shoot sharp, Mike
