I'm thinking a 14" barrel on my stainless Marlin 1895GS in 45-70 my action is glass smooth after Peter at Rusty Wood Trading Company worked on it.
I have 3 T/C Contender carbines with 14" barrels in 375JDJ (444 Marlin brass necked down to 375), 45 Colt and 45-70 = I so understand the short barrel attraction anyone that I let shoot the 375JDJ & 45-70 are amazed at the 200 yard accuracy they are capable of especially from free standing shots they are crazy stable to aim with.
I shot this little coastal blacktail 2 falls ago with it loaded with my 325gr FTX loads scope is now a Leupold VX2 1-4X duplex reticle.
