I'm not going to get into figures and fuel more fire, but I will say that for a lever gun that is looked upon by many as a cool "plinker", 9422 Winchesters and 39 Marlins are surprisingly accurate. I have 3 39's and 2 9422's and they all are pleasingly accurate. On the negative side, there is this little matter called lock time that would prevent me from betting the farm against a 541S Remington or the likes.
