Accurate Winchester?

I have heard some folks say the Winchester 94 30-30 is not usually a very accurate rifle. Are there any of us who have owned exceptionally accurate Winchester 94 rifles?

I have 2 winchester 94s in 30-30, and they are both very accurate.

It,s very accurate rifle ammo, I think once you try the lever revolution ammo you"ll love it, I've used them in the 30-30,.35 Rem, they are very good.

What is the definition of "accurate"?

Lever actions are probably not on par with your better bolt actions, but they can certainly be quite accurate. My dad has 2 94's that are tack drivers at 100yds.
