Lady boys?

I like em too but you're still wrong and you've got to stop making these threads, it's a weird hangup you have

>>64384457
Are there any rolling block 45-70s with modern design instead of historical reproductions? I want something fun for the 100m range.

>>64384457
Let me start by saying I love lever guns and they're vastly underestimated. I recently had the opportunity to shoot .30-30 out to 700 yards and by God it did pretty damn well. You could watch the bullet come in on a rainbow arc but it got there and still hit with some authority. It's actually a very nice cartridge to shoot, especially suppressed. HOWEVER, lever guns are objectively inferior to bolt guns on many fronts. Doesn't mean they aren't effective or that they should be relegated to brush hunting and curios, but the facts are pretty straightforward.
>inherent accuracy
With the magazine tube and fore end being directly attached to the barrel, there's a higher chance of POI shift as the barrel gets hot or you rest it on cover. It's also pretty much impossible to free float one.
>cartridge selection
Options for a bolt gun are literally anything you want. Some artillery pieces are essentially big bolt action rifles with interrupted thread screw breaches. Lever guns are alot more limited on what they're traditionally offered in. Most manufacturers steer away from anything with a spitzer bullet.
>tech maturity/aftermarket
A great bolt gun is very cheap to make and buy and will have dozens of aftermarket accessories. Triggers, stocks, magazines, rails, etc. They're also very robust and simple meaning they're inherently more reliable.
>capacity
This one is weird because a long barrel .357 lever gun holds alot of cartridges but bolt guns already feed from a stacked magazine so their capacity can, in many cases, be easily extended to 10, 20 or even more rounds if the user wants. And that's in full power rifle cartridges. (See mossberg MVP for the theoretical limit)

And thus, bolt guns just win in alot of areas objectively. Again, doesn't mean your lever gun is bad, obsolete, or outgunned, just not "the best" in many useful categories. And no, the BLR doesn't count. It's closer to a straight-pull bolt gun than an actual lever gun.

show us your 1000yd groups op lol
>stock image
do you even own a levergun or any gun at all yourself?

>>64385977
like my old lever as well but you forgot some much more key stuff anon
>reload while prone
>without losing sight picture too
anyone who has ever shot both or even rubbed two braincells together around them can see this one
>complexity and in turn maintenance/repair/cost
yeah don't need a phd to see which one wins on this too

>>64385977
Accuracy, bullet selection, and capacity are all functions of the magazine type, box fed lever actions exist.

>>64386222
NTA but its fundamentally easier to design a bolt gun with a box mag compared to a lever gun. Theres a reason the vast majority are tube based.

savage 99 and blr actions are strong

Why do they never post a picture of the 1860 repro Henry makes?
