Simply put, some of us love the older style weapons more than modern hyper effective ones. This is closer to a carbine than a full size rifle, but for our purposes we can call it a rifle.

.45 Colt, most recently updated by a new ammo type and Cattleman inspired pistol, is a very useful hunting caliber for people who enjoy carefully stalking through the forest. Same as the revolver it would have 6 rounds and a max effective range of about 120m. This lightweight lever action also has a modern rail, allowing for scopes and red dot sights.

Although, you might want to grab the revolver, forget the optics, and play cowboy for a little while.

You know what?

I wouldn't mind if this rifle came with an optional ladder sight rather than tritium sights. It feels more traditional

This or a 44-40, 357mag lever action, 25-35, or any of those could work for the 2-5 you are asking

If we get a .454 lever gun, I want a Spikedriver

But .454 doesn't cover class 2 is the issue

Thats true, forgot the main topic and got carried away lol. I think a weapon pack maybe. 45 colt, 357mag, and maybe a 410 lever shotgun? Sligs and buckshot can cover 2-5 with birdshot being class 1

I’ve made quite a few for it 😂 ive also toyed with the idea of bringing smaller rounds in like 45 schofield for the 45 colts, 38 special for the 357mag, 44 special for the 44mag. My theory is it would be like the hudzik caplock black powder rifle where one ammo type covers a class lower than the other giving slightly more versatility. Personally i’ve used 38spcl on even rabbits and it worked really well. Also used it in a lever action uo to whitetail with no issue. I was thinking it coukd be similar to either the 45/410 revolver or the drilling rifle by hokding a key to go back and forth between one type of ammo or another
