I never favored those old Winchester levers like the M71 or M94 because they don't take a scope on top!
In VT where I hunted deer the most we had to take one with a minimum antler length. The scope is a big help to see behind the ear. Besides they are more fun at the range.
The 99 Savage came in .358 Win and I like that rifle with a scope.
99F 358 Win.
