[QUOTE="358 Guy, post: 1826669, member: 60067"] I own and shoot several lever guns, and I love them all. Two of my favorite hunting rifles are both Browning BLR"s in 358 Win. One has a receiver (peep) sight, and the other has 1.5X5 Leupold FireDot. Included the mix is a Henry Big Boy in 41 Rem Mag with a Skinner Peep Sight. This rifle is way more accurate than it should be. Its a really a fun gun to shoot. I've owned several model 94's and Marlin 336's that were chambered in 30-30. I've always thought that the Marlin is the smoother, stronger gun. I recently put together a 336 with new wood, Colt Royal Blue bluing, and a new barrel chambered in 30-30 Ackley Imp.. I also installed a Williams Receiver sight so as to not disrupt the fine carrying qualities that these rifles are known for. While I do like the Henry's, they are a bit on the heavy side. The 94's are great guns, but the actions are a bit too sloppy for my tastes. Why a lever gun? Well, they are just a cool part of American gun lore. [/QUOTE]
