I used years based on serial number ranges. Rifles weren't produced in serial number order, and any given rifle might be months later than other rifles in that same range. So if you have lever date codes, it's best to go with those. Most will probably match up with the years I gave you - but you might have a couple that are off. We always appreciate more data if you want to share date codes when you get a chance.
