Anyone get one of the new 444's?
« on: December 31, 2006, 06:28:15 PM »
Just wondering what the twist rate is and how accurate they are.  I assume they're the extractor type?

No one knows, they won't be out until February or later. Hopefully Marlin's influence and experience with their levergun's 1:20" twist will be carried over in the NEF .444Marlin, we can only hope. It would also be nice if they have a .429" bore!!! ;) I think you can count on it being an extractor, tho.
