lever actions need help
I've been wanting a new lever action for a while my dad has a winchester model 94 I was looking for a similar one but with a lower price tag than that preferably in 44 or 45 maybe even a 45-70

a Marlin 1894 in .44 magnum,hell of a shooter right out of the box,one of my favorite rifles.

The only lever action I've had any experience with is my Henry .22. I think a Winchester 1892 in .45 Colt would probably retail around $1,100 and a Henry Big Boy in .45 Colt would be around $900. So you would probably only save $200-300 in a similar rifle with Henry.

Henry and Marlin both make a great lever action rifle. You can find them in various calibers from 22lr to 45 colt. Id be happy with either one, but would prefer the Henry.

Thanks, those were all the brands I heard good things about hopefully I can find one for under 700

look into the Rossi lever guns.well made for a reasonable price.you can get them in most calibers.

A great lever gun.......you should have no problem finding one for less than $700!

I did a little looking on Gunbroker and you can pick a Marlin up from any where from 550 on up.It all depends if you want stainless or blued finish.

that is a good idea on the rossi's. they don't have the high price tag and they work. i have a .44 mag and have not had any trouble with it. when it was brand new it was a little hard to feed and work the lever but the more i shot it , it got a lot better. it just needed to be broke in . shoots as well as my marlin ( which i love also )

For about 2 yrs. Went to the range, shot my boyfriends Ruger P345 and was hooked. I prefer shooting .40 and .45s but anything's fun. As long as I get to shoot I'm happy.

You might want to consider 44mag over 45, if only for the cost and availability of ammo..

I had a Winchester model 94 in .44 but due to economic factors had to part with her. Was a great rifle but was very short and kicked way worse than I would have expected. Wish I had her back though. Need to start looking again. Good Luck!
