No offense taken at all. We are saying the same thing just in different ways.
My posts can be short and to the point so I was trying to explain my thought process.
When I say .308, I was referring to .308 Win and am staying clear of .308ME because of the reasons you stated.
I have a 6.8 which is a great round for what is needed around here but since ammo is not kept locally, the 30-30 ( backup and every day carry) would be a better choice because of ammo.
Rocky,
The information you posted about 18.5" barrel length is great info and something to think about.
My only problem is finding one used that is for sale
Mark2,
Not trying to take over your thread, but have been thinking about a lever action myself.
