Lever action 2 part question

[forkliftdave]

Marlin in 44 would be my choice. Henrys are nice but the octagon barrels are heavy

Hey
welcome to lever actions. I own 3 lever action weapons. 1 is 44 Marlin in blue. I loved it. I bought a lever in stainless and it is a Marlin 44. I then loved the stainless so much I bought a Ruger 77/44 in stainless and camo. The last lever I have bought is a Henry in 22. I love the Henry the best for fun and all around function. But the 44's2 have taken deer and will again this year.
Beware....
