Me and my dad found another great stand area just a 5 minute walk from our house! We also got permission from 2 of our other neighbours! The Quiestion I would like a lever action 308 but should I get a rotary magasine or sport the extra money and buy a clip model from Browning. And there is a Browning BLR 308 with a Redfield scope for only $600! Is it a good buy? (Its on http://ebrandon.ca/ItemView.aspx?item_id=525816) Thanks

I hunt with a Winchester 1894 .30-30(Tubular Magazine) that my grandpa passed down to me(was made in 1899 but still shoots like it just came out of the box). That gun has killed atleast one deer for 112 years straight - pretty cool 'eh?. John Browning actually designed the Winchester 1894 .30-30 if you did not know, so I bet the Browning BLR is a great weapon.

The Browning is a great gun that takes the lever action to a new level. It maintains the quick handling qualities of the old lever actions while presenting advantages as well. Easy to scope...some models such as their take down model allow for a scout type mount right on the barrel as well. The Browning barrels are of a higher standard than many of the other manufacturers. On the down side I have been told by guys who used their BLR's in extreme cold (-30) that the action can sustain damage. I am no longer tough enough, make that foolish enough, to go hunting in 30 below so it is not a problem for me. I love that BLR and would not do it the injustice of mounting a scope if my eyes were up to the task. The rifle begs to be fired with that open sight on the shoulder of a big buck and not to be burdened with a scope.
