Henry vs Marlin Lever gun advice

[TacticalCowboy]

Interesting comments.

I'd go Marlin but that's only because the Henry doesn't appeal to me for some reason.

I have a 45-70 Guide gun but I'm not sure if it's pre or post Remington. I bought it used about 4 years ago.

Honestly, it shoots so good I'm afraid to go look for the JM stamp. Mine shoots 1 inch at 100 and 3 inches at 200 with the 325 grain flex tips. I took a doe last season at 210 yards.

Does it have a "JM" on the left side of the barrel just ahead of the receiver?

It doesn't really matter if it shoots good. However, a JM gun will bring more money if you decide to sell.

I want a Henry one day. The action on them is the smoothest I have ever cycled on an off the shelf lever gun.
