1894 in 41 Mag Question
« on: February 24, 2008, 03:48:35 PM »
Does anyone know the twist rate in the .41 Mag 1894?  Are there any accuracy issues with these?  Also, they are no longer listed on the marlin site and i think they are discontinued.  Thanks for any info.

jy951,

I have a 1894FG and it has 1:18 3/4" twist. I had had not problems with it shooting cast or jacketed bullets. As for discontinued, I don't know, they seem to come and go in the Marlin catalog.
