I have a Marlin 1895CB in .45-70 that's been cut to 22" all the joints have been soldered the action smoothed and the trigger done up real nice and smooth.
That little turkey shoots an inch all day long at 100 yards with Ashley Ghost rings.
My other lever is a M-99 savage EG with the schnobled fore end. That rifle was built in the late 1950's and has that super cool brass rotary magazine.
It is also topped with AO Ghost Rings.
Also in the safe is a real nice older Marlin 336 in 30-30.
I like them all but I have to say that I think the older M-99 is coolest little lever gun ever built.
That little rifle just screams "Americana" and the engineering that went into it is really neat. Plus the fact that you can shoot pointy ended bullets out of it.
Or maybe it's that old Savage advertisement with the guy all dressed up in plaid and a campaign hat up on the ledge getting ready to drop the hammer on a bighorn!
What is your favorite lever gun and caliber!
