[QUOTE="Sid Post, post: 2267840, member: 8907"] First, I would strongly suggest a [B]Henry Small Game Rifle[/B] with the peep sights! 22LR is a great start but, personally, I'm on the hunt for a 22WMR version. The Marlin 39A (own one) is nice but, at over $1,000 is just to spendy these days. The same can be said of the Winchester rimfire but, I don't own one myself though my friend uses the 22WMR version for varmints on his property. If you want a centerfire option, one of the Italian 45Colts or 44Mags would be my first choice. The newer Winchester 1892's are sweet but, easily over $1,000 too. The old Marlin 336 30-30 my father had and I just didn't bond well. It is a fine rifle but, we just didn't meld together well. Today, I would probably try a Winchester 94 angle eject option in a 35/375 version. That being said, a lever-action Henry rimfire is an awesome choice IMHO. YMMV ;) [/QUOTE]
