A new .357 Mag rifle
As others have I have been searching in vain for a .357 levergun for some time. I just can't warm up to the Henry. Beside being heavy I don't like the way they load thru the tube. I couldn't find a Marlin or a Rossi, then I found this. http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2017 ... ever-guns/
I guess all I have to do now is wait.

Good news. They should sell some of those.

Re: A new .357 Mag rifle
I would definitely like that.....save me money vs threading and shortening what I have, if I sell my 1894Css now to generate the funds.

Re: A new .357 Mag rifle
I like the lines of those new CBs. None has shown up in the stores here as yet.
Re: A new .357 Mag rifle
Well they say it's in the 2018 catalog so we'll have to wait and see how long it takes for anyone to get one.

Re: A new .357 Mag rifle
Well, the day after I wrote that, I stopped by my favorite gun store and there was a new CB in .45. I was very favorably impressed. The action was smooth, and the wood to metal fit good. The rifle balances nicely, and that tapered octagon is pretty classy.

I was lucky enough to get a 357 Winchester legacy right here.
Don't shoot it enough though....that has to change this year!

Re: A new .357 Mag rifle
not crazy about the price of the Marlin, I own a Henry Big Boy Steel Carbine in .357 mag and like it allot... :)
Re: A new .357 Mag rifle
I’m very happy with my Maruku Winchester ‘92. Slick enough and good groupings. It is exactly what I was looking for.

Re: A new .357 Mag rifle
I have the Marlin with a 20 inch barrel and a Puma with a 16 inch. I feel I am set for now.

Re: A new .357 Mag rifle
Now they are thinking "suppressors" let us hope they give a little faster twist to the barrels. And cut those MSRP's by about 40%. At which point I might gen up a little interest in checking out a Remlin.

Re: A new .357 Mag rifle
I understand your attitude towards the "loading tube", but after owning a Henry Big Boy Steel Carbine in .357mag with the 16 1/2" barrel for ver a year I can tell you that the loading tube is very serviceable, easy to use, and easy to unload at the end of the day. As far as WEIGHT, my Henry weighs 6 1/2 lbs, the same as the Marlin 1894 CST (16 1/2" barrel)... :)
