Can imagine a few "dream" levers. Some have gotten to try, some I never will.
Hard to beat one of these, pointability-wise, in the end. Nor is 300SAV often "wrong".
This 1893 in 30WCF trumps it in nostalgia, but for functioning dream rifle, the model 99 is it for me. Ditto the Win 1873 - would love to have one to shoot around, but carry and chambering-wise... model 99.
