RE: Any Hunting Deer with Lever Action Rifles?
I have a Win. Model 88 in 308 Amodel 94 in 30-30 and a Marlin 336 in 30-30. I mostly use the Model 88. I once had a Savage99 in 308 but had trouble with the safe so I traded it in for an 06....

I use my Browning BAR 308 usually for Deer and bring the Marlin 336 30-30 as back-up. Next season I want to bring the Marlin out a couple of days and give it some exersize.

I've got a Marlin in 357 with a ghost ring sight. If I'm hunting in the deep stuff where shots will be 50 yards or less, that's what I take. Very lightweight and handles great.
