Or the Marlin 45/70

I love that Guide Gun. If I could afford another rifle that's expensive to shoot, I'd have one.

Actually, if I weren't under budget constraints right now, I'd pick up a Henry lever action .22's. That frontier model (octagonal barrel) really appeals to me.

And a Ruger lever action in a 44 mag.

I'm looking for a bolt-action .243 for hunting season. Don't really care what brand.

Academy and Cabela's have both been running specials on their Remingtons, Mossbergs, and Weatherbys if you want to buy new.
If you want used.. well, enjoy your gun store & pawnshopping.

If you're spending your hard earned money, then you better care what brand.

That said, I recommend Tikka T3.

I've put a few rounds through the same gun with the same grips...it was very nice.
