I want a lever gun, my first, but I do not have a specific “hunting” need to fulfill. I don’t hunt any longer, but enjoy woods hiking occasionally, so it would be a plinker-fun-gun more than anything else. I have a Ruger New Model Blackhawk in 45 Colt, and a S&W 629 3”. I enjoy shooting the Ruger, the Smith not so much unless I’m shooting 44 Spec rounds. The lever gun would be a woods companion for either of the two revolvers, and might do double duty as a home defense rifle. I am leaning towards the 45 Colt, but not dead set on it. I am not a reloader.
From you lever gun folks perspective, what would be the pros and cons of each considering my intended use?
Thanks!
