Lever Action anyone?

[Mw01313]

It's almost the point in the year to break this one out. Model 94 in 25-35. Believe it's a Lyman peep on the rear. Amazing what a 117 gr FP through the lungs will do. No bluing left on the metal, but still makes meat.

I absolutely LOVE my Leveraction!
I have walked with it numerous times this season.
It is a Model 94 30-30 from 1980. I know it’s not a”pre 64” but it shoots accurately and it is such a pleasure to carry, especially in the close worlds I love to hunt here in the northeast.
Light of weight, balanced, agile, and quick to aim….
I hand load the Hornady FTX 160s with Leverevolution powder and this potentially makes my rifle a 200 yd gun, but with peeps I’m only shooting out to 100 or so. Also where I hunt with it there are not many instances where one can see more than 50 yards.
The seasons not over here yet and I’m certain I’ll be carrying this rifle again a couple more time before it is.
I have peep sights on it as my older eyes don’t see the buckhorn sights well any longer.
I currently have a Williams receiver sight on it and it works really well. I’ve tried a Skinner barrel mounted peep sight but had a few problems with it and with the hunting season coming I went back to the Williams.
I’ll be playing more with the Skinner to see if I can get that to what it needs to be in the off season.
