Target Suite is another guntuber I follow. I like George, down to earth fellow. Well, he got a new 336 to review and it looks like Ruger has hit another one out of the park. Very attractive rifle. 👍🏻.

Wow, Ruger-Marlin sure is producing some nice rifles.....good to see they chose the high road regarding quality. The new 336 is beautiful. I would really like an 1894 357 carbine, however, it appears their first run of 1894's will be chambered in 44 mag. Groan.....I'm tired of waiting for the 357. A gunshop north of me has a BBS Henry 357 carbine on order, nice but I'd sure like a Marlin I think...

TraderVic, I have had a .357 Henry Big Boy Steel for 5 or 6 years and it really is a classy rifle. It is a little bulky but that's my only complaint. The wood and the checkering are beautiful, the fit is excellent and it feeds both .38s and .357s just fine.

Thanks Walt, it's encouraging to hear your experience with a Henry levergun.

From what I've seen and handled at gun shops, I'd rather have a Marlin for the 357 - lighter weight especially the new little 16" ones - and 'save' the extra heft of the Henry for the 44 Mag or 45 Colt.

My wife has a 327 Fed Henry and it's not as light or handy as my 357 Mag Marlin. Both well made fine guns though. Of course 327 Fed ammo is Unobtainium, but that's a whole 'nother story... :roll:

FWIW, the Henry BBS Sidegate 357 carbine (16.5" barrel) is 6 1/2 lbs

I got a bunch of .327 brass and bullets when they were available. I loaded up all I could, and there are still a pretty good number left. PillHer doesn't shoot much, so she has about a 10 year supply now.
