Heres my dilema, when I grab the iron sighted model 94 I see a deer at 200yrds on the other side of the lake, when I take the heavy stainless scoped bolt gun a deer will run past so close that if I can find himin the scope Ijust see brown.

I'm looking for middle ground, and want a pump action rifle, scoped with see thru rings.

What are my options?

I saw the XS mounting system on a hunting show where the scope is mounted on lever guns way down the barrel and use long eye relief scopes
they say that you can get on your target faster and they are easier to shoot with both eyes open.

So use the old 94 to kill that 200 or 10 yd deer. With the XS and Hornadays new lever revelation.
