The guys over at the Marlin forum have me short shrift when I suggested a 1894 carbine in
.40 S+W.
Raub, the Winchester 1895 is in 30-06- pretty close to the commie round.
I’m on board with both ideas. I’m the only person I know who owns or shoots the 7/30 Waters. Winchester 94 Angle Eject ( USRAC ). Nice rifle – carries like a dream but I think the Marlin design is superior and the round itself cries out for the LeveRevolution treatment.
I’ve an 1895 in .30-06 and would love a stripper clip guide as on the Russian muskets.
Instead I’ve a Williams peep sight positioned where the guide would go.
Hum? A strip guide 1895, an Auto-5 12 gauge and a 1911 for an all Browning 3-gun set up. How cool would that be?
Excuse my blood thirstiness but a 7 X 30 Waters would make a nice Cowboy Assault Rifle Especially with the Hornady bullets. A 336 tweaked, accurized, and (ahmem,) Slipstreamed would be sweet.
I’d like to see a new levergun in 7.62x54r. Fed by stripper clips into a fixed mag. Like the one the Russians had.

That would be a special kind of cool. I have a soft spot for both the lever gun and 7 mm calibers…
Not a fan of the .308 MX?
Jim
Neck the .308MX down to .284…. Awesome.
I still haven’t seen a good reason for why they didn’t just revive the .307 Winchester.
I’ve no idea. They could have done it in an 1895 action gun and it would have been caveman simple.

Roger that, bro’. Load up some of Cutting Edge Bullets 130 grain hollowpoints and you’d be good to go as well. Sweet.
