I like both bolt and lever action,i like my bolt action when im hunting cleard land or fields ,but when im stalking for my deer in the thickets or brush i like my lever action....
ditto. if i had to choose from the two i would go with the bolt most likely. but i still voted for both of them.

I prefer a lever, but wonder why you don't have a pump on the list.

I like the lever actions. There is just something about them... They aretrue legendary rifles that have dropped many deer and other game animals for 100 years.

P.S. Then again, I wouldn't mind a bolt action rifle in a .270 (Winchester, Ruger, Remington, etc...)

For some reason, I am not able to pick my vote!???
But, for the record, I like bolt guns best! Singleshots next!
