I use a lever action some of the time. The one I'm using these days is a Winchester 94 Big Bore in 375 Winchester.
The 94 is really handy and easy to carry with that slim receiver.

On my next deer hunting trip, I plan on taking my Marlin 336 in .35 Remington (where legal......about a third of our state is shotgun/muzzleloader only). I also hunt with a Winchester M94 in .30/30 Winchester.

Cherokee Cowboy,
I have a M94 Carbine made in 1918 and a M94 Rifle made in 1919; both are .30/30s. I will hunt a day or two in the big woods with each this rifle deer season. Adam
