I have a few of the lightning models . 243, 22-250, 7mm08, 30-06 , 308 all are very accurate. I am a huge lever fan . marlin, savage, winchester and browning. I will make the statement that the browning blr lightning design is the only lever action I own that you can jack the lever as slow as you possibly can and it will function.my go to gun is the blr in 30-06. I bought new in 1996 took it home and cut 3/4 of an inch off the butt stock and cut the barrel down to 19 inches, and put an 11,5 degree inverted crown on it. off the bench at 100 yds is so tight that if I made a claim on just how accurate it is you would think I was making up stories.
