Default RE: Lever fans?

I'm pretty addicted to tall blondes, big.....oh, we're talkin about guns[8D][&:] Just kidding...

I'm a huge lever action fan, I'm pretty well addicted to all guns-I've got a battery that would outfit several people for any hunt on the planet-literally, but the only ones that I've got a "majority" in are lever actions and revolvers, reliving part of my family heritage I guess. I'm not really a fan of the .30-30, oddly enough, I've always felt that I can get the same performance (hunting wise) from a .44mag, using half the powder and getting twice the magazine capacity.

ALL of my leverguns are Marlins, my shooters at least, I've got some 99's (savages) that I don't even touch except to keep the rust off of them, mint condition, hopefully fetch a fair price someday, maybe put my great grandkids through college after I kick off. I HATE winchester 1894's.

I'm not wary of bolt guns, I've got several and use them probably as much or more than my leverguns, but they're far from being my favorites.
