I picked one of the Smith and Wesson Lever guns up, I had some time to test it out today.
I threw a 5-inch square self-healing target out about 15 yards and started shooting at it, first 10 rounds hit it every time, the rifle was very comfortable, well-balanced
, and cycled very smooth. after 10 rounds the square target was about 40 yards out,I hit it another 7 times then a storm moved it so I packed it up. so far I like it better than my new Marlin 1894 in 44 Mangum.
