Lever Rifle & Revolver como

[frankski]

Henry Big Boy in .357 magnum and S&W 686+.

It's been said before, but a valuable feature of lever action and revolvers vs. semis is the ability to shoot light or heavy loads without concern of cycling issues.

I handload for both, from subsonic to 2000 fps in the Henry.

Why not a 45-70 combo? Magnum Research BFR 45/70 and Henry 45/70

Is that revolver what you used to put old trains out of their misery?

Thanks for the replies, don't remember saying anything about a hand cannon

I recently picked up a Marlin 336RC in .35 Rem to go with my Thompson Contender. Until someone comes out with a revolver in .35.....

They make that bfr in 30-30, so it's not out of the realm of possibility.
