.45 raptor also
If we're talking limited firearm zone, the max case length is 1.8".
That excludes
.375 Win
.450 Marlin
.444 Marlin
.38-55
Other zones are good though for those I think.
your question needs to be re-worded, all straight wall rifle cartridges are ok in a pistol, but straight wall pistol cartridges in a rifle do have to meet a min./max. length you must fall within. So short answer to your question as worded, all straight wall rifle cartridges are good in zone 3 (just need to use the right gun) I happen to use a .444Marlin in an Encore in zone 3.

.41 Mag,
"dying ain't much of a living boy"
I have a beautiful .450 marlin that just sits, it's only just fractions longer than 1.80
Probably gonna just roll the dice, just tell the c/o it's .45LC ... worth a shot?
.300 is a big difference,
