Savage 99 .358-Brush Gun been a great rifle so far.

I don't currently own a lever action, but when I do it will be this one.

Those are aweful purdy.
The lazy do not roast any game, but the diligent feed on the riches of the hunt.

Ever since I bought my first savage 99 a few years back I’ve been hooked on them. Probably do 90% of my hunting with either my .250 or .300 now. Had someone offer me a 99dl in .284 a while back and didn’t move on it., kind of kick myself over that one.

Once you get used to carrying one, it makes your average bolt action feel like a club. A 99 feels like an extension of your arm.
you can still get gas in heaven, and a drink in kingdom come,
in the meantime, i'll be cleaning my gun

Oh yeah now we’re talking. What calibers you running bango?

Left to right, a remlin .357, winchester .308, winchester .308, marlin .30-30, remlin .444

Have you noticed the grip sized change with the Remlins? They hung a fat pistol grip on the newer guns that gives a clumsy look and feel to the butt stock.

Some nice looking levers here...

The .30 and the .375. Coyotes, javelina. Jackrabbits, deer and elk. Probably the handiest set of tools I own.

Very nice levers. Like the old school red plaid jacket too.

I loves them, I loves them all!  Now just imagine if you could use your .45 Colt cowboy lever-gun to take deer in a WDFW Firearm Restriction Area?  More elegant and more accurate than a 12ga shotgun with slugs...

I hope WDFW will consider amending their FRA weapon restrictions, as I discuss here:
