Thread: Lever guns - What do ya reckon?

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 of drop. For quick shooting a lighter rifle with a lower recoil cartridge like the .30-30 would be my pick although as an old codger I would want the option of a low power scope. I lent my 88 to a young friend at one stage and he managed to collect his first two deer with one 4 shot mag so it can't have been that bad.
Regards Grandpamac.
