Let's take a closer look at five of the best lever-action rifle cartridges.

Lever-Action Upgrades

As the lever-action revolution continues to gain traction among hunters and shooters, it’s time we look at functional upgrades that’ll turn your old workhorse into a modern-day stallion.

Marlin Big Bore 1895SBL

The 1895SBL, a serious big-bore lever-action gun that can take it as well as dish it out, is destined to become another Marlin 1895 legend.

Hardware: Henry Long Ranger Express

If you’re looking for a compact, quick and scope-sighted (or red dot) coyote/varmint/deer rifle or personal defense rifle, the Henry Long Ranger Express, chambered in .223 Remington, is worth a hard look.

Hardware: Henry Big Boy Color Case Hardened Side Gate

The Big Boy Color Case Hardened Side Gate is a smooth-cycling lever gun, and the action is a masterpiece. When properly maintained and oiled, this beauty will offer reliable performance for years to come.

Hardware: Marlin Model 1895 SBL

A large part of what makes the new Ruger-made 1895 SBL an ideal calling card is that it appeals to both hunters and personal protectors. Chambered in .45-70 Gov't, regardless of the game, or the threat, this slick-handling powerhouse is a closer.
