I am looking into them and cannot remember who made them. Marlin or Winchester?

Both companies make them. I've been thinking about getting one for a while now, but it always seems to get put on the back burner. But both companies offer them. Anyone make any recommendations on model/barrel length, etc.?

Marlins website says they do not do custom work and I cannot find a reference to .357 Maximum. They have .357 Magnum.
The .357 Maximum was developed by Ruger I believe. I am wanting it for a light deer cartridge. Bob |

Hi Bob. Thanks again man. I have a Marlin 1894 in 44 Mag and I love it. I've never heard of .357 maximum, but here are the Marlin boards.

I've got a .357 Max TC pistol. I don't remember there being a lever action rifle for it offered by either Marlin or Winchester. Good luck in your search.

I don't recall any commerical lever action offered in 357 maximum. It was offered in the ruger blackhawk, but from what I remember reading the high pressures very near the forcing cone really ate up the revolvers. Dan Wesson still has an offering as the barrels are easialy replaced.
In theory the a 357 magnum rifle can be rechambered in 357 maximum. Actually it a project I've considered before. Jim |

I was thinking of that myself. Now all I have to find is a nice Marlin in .357 and a chamber reamer for a reasonable price.
I know! GROUP PURCHASE on the chamber reamer!! Bob |

while on the topic of 357MAX rifles, Savage made their Model 24 combination gun in 357MAX/20GA for awhile. I have seen one, but I doubt they made very many. The 357MAG/20GA versions are more common, and would be an easy conversion.
Those NEF/H&R 357 single shots would be an easy conversion, too. |
