    Throwing in my 2C. A lever gun in 30-30 will do what you're looking for. I used a Winchester 94 in 30-30 for quite a while and it was very effective - carried nicely, worked in tight bush, pointed...

    Had a Finnwolf 308, sold in moment of madness. Still got my 88 308, won’t ever sell it. Both excellent rifles. BLR is pretty good too, still considering getting one in 223 to scratch an itch.

    Load your big hitter down and learn to shoot it faster is the cheaper option and probably the best . . or talk yourself into buying a leveraction and enjoy. i have 3 levers and say get one and teach...

    Have a rossi 357 carbine. Great little gun and balances perfectly if carrying with one hand with the rounded bottom of the reciever. I have mounted an OEG sight on it as it should be a good fit for...

    The point with lever actions, and particularly the Winchester 94'in .30/30, Winchester / Rossi 92 and the Marlin, is not that you can shoot fast with them, although they are faster than a bolt...

    If you don't have a lever gun, you need to buy one. End of discussion. (Calibre is up to you, but I live at the high end of the spectrum, 44 mag, 45-70)

    Greetings, Had a Winchester 88 in .308 years ago. It shot very well but the trigger was not flash. It booted more than my M700 in spite of lighter loads and a heavier rifle due to a stock with a lot...

    BLR in .308/243 etc has to be about the quickest and most accurate.....a scoped 30/30 or 44 magnum or 357mag in that order after that....although I BELIEVE Henry have put out a lever action...

    Really depends on the wear on your barrel. I would be unsurprised if it had at least 0.1" of jump but you'll have to measure it to know. The 20 thou jump people often try to start at is fairly...
