A: Hi Steven, unfortunately we would need an actual Serial Number to be able to specify date of manufacture Steven. I don't think Buds would give that out without purchase.

A: They seem to be hit or miss for a little more money I would look seriously at the Henry https://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/product_info.php/cPath/2084_36_107_980/products_id/96646/HENRY+H012+BIG+BOY+STEEL+44M%2FSPL

A: This particular rifle has some stock fit-up gaps between the butt-stock and the receiver. I loosened the screw a little, then bounced the butt on the floor, then tightened-up the screw. That took care of 75% of the gap. Also, on this particular unit, the front sight has had to be replaced with a lower one. With the rear sight adjusted fully up, it still shot low at 25 yards....at 75 or 100 it would not be on paper. Also, when they pressed the front sight in, they just positioned it flush with the right side of the ramp, but did not center it. That's just poor attention to detail. However, any factory rifle should be able to be brought to zero with the sights it came with. If I were not a very experienced shooter, I would have been frustrated that it could not be zeroed. The rifle functions well enough, but is not as smooth as my 1895. I am sure that with use, it will get better. I would rather Remington/Marlin put more effort in to fit and finish than have the stock checkering. The tri

A: Absolutely Hubert. This will be an almost perfect combination of light recoil and deer killing power package. Definitely look into "Underwood Ammunition" for their 44 Mag loads.

A: Hi Hubert, No it would be an Excellent firearm for that purpose! Use Underwood Ammunition

A: Yes it will do a super job on whitetails at 100 yards Big Mule deer I would want a little more gun

A: Hubert, it's a great rifle for deer hunting, I would recommend using Buffalo Bore, Garrett Ammo, or Underwood ammo for shots over 50-60 yards. Bud's carries Buffalo Bore ammo in .44 Magnum at a good price. Just go for the heavy bullet weights, over 240 grains, for the longer range.

A: Yes, the 44 ,mag makes a good 100 yard deer gun. But works even better as a 50-75 yard tree stand gun. I have a Ruger M-77/44 bolt gun that has proven to be a solid, accurate, easy to carry package. A Leupold 1x4 power scope works great for the .44 mag.
