Best Answer

NO. The case is too large to enter a 22LR chamber. If chambered in a .22 magnum, you will be firing a .17 caliber bullet out of a .223 barrel, with no accuracy at all, and splitting the cartridge case.

Yes. The 44 special is a bit shorter than the 44 magnum, so it will fit in the cylinder of the 44 mag. The reverse won't work, however. A 44 mag cannot be fired in a revolver chambered for the 44 special because the 44 mag is too long and won't fit in the cylinder of the 44 special.

Can you fire 44 Special and or 44 mag out of a 444 Marlin rifle?

No, you can not. The 44 Special can be fired in any firearm chambered and marked for the 44 Magnum cartridge. The 444 Marlin is a rifle cartridge (much longer than either the 44 Spl or 44 Mag), and is much more powerful. The 44 Spl and 44 Mag. were designed as handgun cartridges, but have been adapted to a small number of lever-action carbines. Bert H.
