The .444 Marlin is back, and this time Tim’s keeping it “community-standards compliant”… or at least trying to. After his previous video got yanked, Tim revisits one of his most underrated big-bore favorites. Tim breaks down how the .444 stacks up against the .45-70, why straight-wall hunters should give it a serious look, and what bullet constructions actually matter if you’re in grizzly country. He also digs into twist-rate myths, the history behind the cartridge, and why early Marlin engineering decisions made heavy bullet stabilization such a fight.
