Let's See Your Lever Action

[Ontario Hunter]

Marlin Model 1881 in 40-60 Marlin. I have an Ideal tong hand reloading tool in 40-65 Winchester which is essentially the same cartridge. Designed to kill buffalo and Indians. Hard to get a hunting license for either species these days so it stays in the safe.

Can't get enough of the Savage 99. One of the AH members even shot a kudu with one in 300 Savage. The previous owner of mine claimed he killed a bear in self defense with it.

That might be me. I took a kudu, gemsbok, warthog, and impala with mine. By the serial number it's a 1947 issue EG. I used handloads with 180 grain Accubonds.

Well, as a left handed shooter, I own a lot of lever actions, so here’s another. This one is probably my favorite. A Marlin

1895 in 45-70. I’ve taken a lot of deer with this one, using my hand loads and cast bullets.

I also own a model 88. Mine is in 308. Always on the lookout for one chambered in 358. One day, I’ll pick one up.
Anyways, here’s some pictures of mine. She’s a shooter!!

Yes sir that is a shooter. I have seen 2 in 358 one a friend owns, who says” when they pry it from my cold dead hands”. The other was asking $2500.

My wife’s great uncle had one in 358. After he passed away his son sold it. Unfortunately, he didn’t sell it to me. I would have loved to have that rifle, and his model 71.
I didn’t know him for a long time, but he was a great man that I thought a lot of.
He’s the reason I now own both the model 71 and 88.

Bought my son this beautiful 1924 made .300 Savage Model 99 with an extra shotgun barrel in .410 bore.
