[QUOTE="MontanaMarine, post: 634140, member: 268"] A Handi-Rifle might be a viable platform for the job. Short, flat, sturdy, cheap. A 7-08 or 308 would offer good handload options for LR. You could mount a pic rail (EGW makes them) and have a scope like a Bushnell 3200 10X in QR rings in a saddlebag, and rely on the irons for quick close shots, or mount the scope if you have some time/distance. Just a thought. It would give a lot more reach than the 30-30 levergun, while still being a bonafide beater-gun that would ride in a scabbard fairly well. [/QUOTE]
