I'm pondering another lever. I dearly love shooting my Winchester 94 in .30-30 but am considering my next one.
I have a Ruger Blackhawk in .45 Colt. So a lever, probably a Rossi given my budget, would be a good companion for that especially since I reload.
OTOH, I'd like a lever with a bit more oomph. A used Winchester in .38-55 might well be within my means as well. I'd probably reload it just like with my .30-30 so ammunition cost shouldn't be any worse than the rest once I get a bit of brass. One other idea is getting a beater in .30-30 and getting it rebarreled in .38-55.
Thoughts?
