Question That's odd

What do you guys use for these bigger calibers? Do I have to store them bullet end down?
It doesn't make sense that they don't fit. Other than the slightly longer COAL (0.02"), there is no reason a 444 Marlin wouldn't fit in a case sized for 45-70.

Get some of the MTM RMLD-50 ammo boxes. They are designed for a max COAL of 3.08"
