450 Marlin in a Model 94?

[Finger Toes]

Will a 450 marlin feed and cycle through model 94 standard or Big Bore? There would have to be some alterations to the lifters etc at least. I saw a timber carbine 450 Marlin on the internet and it appeared to be a regular old 94AE action.

Whether it would feed or not I cannot comment.

However, as I own a couple of .450's, and a few 94's, I wouldn't trust a regular 94 receiver to the force of the .450. They simply aren't built for that.

The timber carbines that I have seen were in .444 which is much milder, and even then I would assume that they were a beefed up receiver.
