    I think I've read about a marlin 444 upper. Wouldn't that bolt work with 44 mag?

    The bolt mod for a 44 Rem Mag is pushing it as far as I would take it. I wish someone would make a 44 mag specific bolt.

    Dont expect it to happen soon, if at all. They wont be fond of the big reduction in metal. Theyd want to enlarge the bolt head dimensions, needing a bigger upper reciever.. think lots of extra $$$$$$$$$.

    The 44 Mag rim diameter is .514, the .473 rim of the 458 SOCOM in the AR-15 is pretty much the max diameter you can use on an AR-15 bolt. I'm sure it could be done on an AR-10 but then you have the extra length of the magazine to contend with. I made an AR-15 upper in 44 Auto Mag using the 458 SOCOM bolt and it works great. You can even get brass from Starline or loaded ammo from SBR.
