Just like the title says. I have been wanting a .38/.357 lever gun for a while. i have given up on Marlin producing a 1894c anytime soon, and cannot see spending $8-900 on a used one. I'm not too fond of the Henry tube feed magazine, it feels too much like a .22 to me. LGS's around here have a 24", octagon barrel, pistol grip Winchester 73 for close to $1200 and numerous Rossi's in both large and small loop carbines for $5-600. Is the Winchester worth the extra $600? I really like the Winchester, but need reasons to justify the extra money. This rifle will be used mostly for plinking, but occasionally may see use as a short range hunting rifle for deer and other small game. I reload, so ammo is not an issue as I would be working up loads for specific tasks. Any info you can provide me would be of great help.
