I guess I never noticed before, how Marlin levers like the 1895 do not have the front and rear barrel bands that we find on the 336. Instead, the 1895 has more of a "nose cap" on the forearm but no bands.
I'm just wondering if anyone can tell me why this is and if one setup has any accuracy advantage over the other.
My gut impression would be that fewer contacts between barrel, mag and forearm might prevent groups wandering as the barrel heats up.
Does that make sense?
Thanks!
