In 1959, when I was 12, I got my first job making 25¢ an hour. Feeling rich, I ordered a Marlin Golden 39A from our local department store. Unknown to me, the clerk called my Dad when I left and asked him if it was okay to which Dad said yes (my background check). I took every quarter I made down to pay for the Marlin. I waited 6 months for the Marlin to come in and when it did, the clerk gave me very one of my quarters back…my Dad had paid for the rifle when I ordered it. I still have the Marlin and my grandson will be getting it.
39A great little rifle I hope your grandson realizes what you are giving him and passes it in to his grandchild.
I have the same model, from about 1970, and it was my uncle's gun and it was given to my father and now it's mine.
Great .22 rifle.
Wish my clan were so WISE
Great story
I got my dads too he brought back from Japan he bought in the px when he was in veitmam
The rifle arrived today and I dialed in the scope just a couple hours ago th-cam.com/users/postUgkxQt2uORDRfFOVSrO4idv4B90ThT6EOnEL . I haven’t shot with a scope in probably 25 years. The X on the left was my target. (the shot almost in the bullseye on the right X was my father in laws first shot after I made adjustments) The two shots circled are my first 2 shots. Then I brought it down - shot once. Then brought it over to the left. From there zeroed it in to dead center. This all was from 25 yards out. Follow instructions carefully when mounting the scope. So far I'm very happy with the purchase.
I grew up on a ranch in Arizona, we have Winchester 92 in 44-40 , 86s in 45-90 and 50-110 plus one in 25-20 they were always behind the seat of our trucks
My Savage Model 99 chambered in .308 is still my go to deer rifle for out to about 300 yards. My grand-dad gave it to my dad for his 16th birthday...back in 1943. My dad, in turn, gave it to me on my 15th birthday.
uhhhhh the .308 wasn't introduced until 1953. If you got it in 1943 I'm calling bullshit on this post. You might have gotten the .300 Savage, but not the .308.
@@thewargod1995 Ole Goat was probably just mistaken, considering his moniker.
I have a savage 99 in .358 Win.
Only use it when I’m in real thick pine forests, or something to use if I need to make a longer than usual shot. Great rifles
@@Pretermit_Sound i have one in .300 savage and it's my brush gun for deer. it's about 60-70 years old but you couldn't tell it was a really well made rifle
@@andyvonbourske6405 they’re well made rifles. Shame they stopped making them.
Yes, you forgot to mention Winchester's 9422, and you need to set it on #1 spot and drop the 39a to the bottom.
I love my Marlin 336 30 I've had it since I was 14 I'll be 58 this year it's a great gun
Savage model 99 rocks..308 version very cool. It hits everything right where you're supposed to
The gun you showed as an 1860 Henry was a newer 1866. The
real Henry loaded from the front of the barrel by twisting the
end of the magazine and dropping the rounds
down the tube. The 1866 used the same action as the 1860
but added the side loading gate. They both used the same
elevator type action. That action has to be one of the smoothest
I have ever used. And I know these rifles because
I have actually used a vintage 1860 Henry and presently own
a Uberty replica. (Good luck finding .44 Henry rimfire today!)
If you watch any of madman's videos you'll find most of the images used have little to nothing to do with what he's talking about? Not sure if he just doesn't know what he's talking about or what? Very frustrating to watch.
I found an old lever action rifle in the back of a gun store. The rifle turned out to be a Winchester model 94-22. The finish was rough, but the wood was good and a bright bore. Bought the rifle for $200.00 and brought it home, spent the winter months cleaning and checking the rifle, and replaced the springs. The rifle has turned out to be great, it shoots LR, L, and shorts.
I was so lucky to be raised by a gunsmith and collector, from blunderbusses, flintlocks, WW1 and 2, breachloaders, 30's Tommyguns, pistols and revolvers, we had, and used most everything imaginable. Plenty of Winchesters, including a very engraved nickel plated rifle and matching pearl handled six shooter with an incredible holster, should find out if my brother still has them too.
I have a 39 Marlin centinnial model that money can not buy .I bought it in 1970 soon after being seperated for the navy, I had always dreamed of having one as a kid. So as soon as I got a job I ordered the centinnial model. Never have quit being my favorite gun I have ever owned.
Sorry, the Henry of 1860 HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE Henry Company rifles of today! MAJOR ERROR!
Yep! Most of the modern day Henries as mere copycats of the Marlin 336/1895.
And it has nothing to do with the Winchester mod. 1866 (Yellowboy), which is shown.
This guy making gun videos is a major error in and of itself. He don't know shit. I watch to see what he screws up, and the hit keep coming.
The modern day Henry rifles are absolute junk especially the so called Mare's Laig!
I was introduced to the Savage 99 when I was 10 years old. It was a .250-3000 and we went hunting Prong horn antelope. It was fantastic rifle and I've never looked back. I now own at least on of every caliber they were chambered in with both internal and detachable magazines. It is the lever gun I will never sell.
My first deer rifle was a Marlin 336. Really useful when in heavy brush. Regrettably I sold it to someone who hunted deer more than I did, but it was a beautiful and reliable rifle.
My first deer rifle was 336 Marlin 30-30 also
@@davidpeters4129 me too!
@@davidpeters4129😊
Lever action rifles are classic! One of my favorites is the Winchester 1873. It’s accurate, it has excellent sights
@Phuque Meeded
See if you can retrieve it, and let me know how much you'd like to have for it, since I have a 4 digit 9422 new in the box that would make a nice set.,.... Thanks, Regards.
@Phuque Meeded
Thanks for your time and reply, every older rifle has it's own past and storyline and becomes a conversation piece, which is always entertaining to share!😁,.... Regards from S. TX.
WINCHESTER MADE THE MODEL 88, SAKO made the Fin Wolf I believe which are excellent.
I have my Grandfather’s Savage 99 takedown model in .300 Savage caliber. It has the most beautiful profile of any lever action rifle ever made. He bought it about 1925. I had it restored and will treasure it for the rest of my life.
Being a Rifleman fan I always wanted the Winchester 92.
Winchester Model 71 in .348 Winchester. Outstanding firearm of awesome power. Reliability 2nd to none.
The strongest and most powerful lever gun ever made period.
I to own the model 71 winchester in .348. It was handed down from my grandfather. Love this rifle
My moose and deer gun now for 45 years. Simply put - the best of all the lever guns. People forget about the advantage of the exta width over a .308. A 200 grain bullet with more diameter, at the same velocity of a 30-06 with a 180 grain bullet. I have the deluxe version with nicer wood and hand checkering.
@@quigley4440 As is mine, though I no longer have the OEM sling it came with.
Have a Winn mod 94 32 spcl made in 1937 still beautiful even still has saddle ring and shoots great
I have one of those too. I'm the 5th generation to have it.
I have two Winchester 30-30 and one 35 marlin , my 35 marlin is my favourite bush gun of all time
I have a Winchester 9422 given to me as a gift when I was 18 . 50 years and many happy hours later , it's still in good shape and a prized firearm.
I just turned 76, and my health no longer allows me to hunt. My first lever action was a Marlin Golden 39-A Mountie model that my Dad gave me for my 10th. birthday. (I had gotten a single shot Stevens Favorite Youth Model the year before). When I was 12 I graduated from Rabbits & Squirrels to Deer, and for Christmas that year Santa brought me a Winchester '94 in 30-30. Both of those lever action rifles have been passed down to two more generations, and are still working flawlessly. The quality of manufacturing back then was amazing, WAY better than today.
I think the model 92 Winchester, the model 94 Marlin, and the Marlin 336 deserve an honorable mention. Also mention the 25-35.
Never seen a 25 35
I'm surprised the 336 wasn't on this list. This is a VERY popular hunting rifle for decades. Walmart sold it for a very long time. I used my uncle's 336 with the gold trigger to hunt in the '90s.
my 1894 in 44 mag is my favorite
@@johnm948 I have 2 model 94 Winchesters. One in 30-30 and one in 25-35. Both fun to shoot. I have a Marlin 94CL in 25-20. Also a fun gun.
I have an old Marlin 35. One of my favorite rifles
In 1979 I was sixteen years old and got my first firearm it was a 1979 Marlin 336, I slept with it for a month. Hundreds of gun purchases later, it is my most treasured possession, still comes out of the safe several times a year, she is loved and is the finest firearm I own.
This is a great commentary Thanks
Great Video!
Well, I have owned a Henry (.22 WMR), a Savage Model 99 (.303 Savage), the Browning BLR (7mm-08), and the Marlin 336 (30-30). I gave the Henry and the Savage to my son. The Browning is actually my wife's deer rifle and the Marlin is my short to medium range deer rifle.
1892 is lovely, to have and shoot!!!
I have used my Winchester Model 88 .308 for 50 years. Many deer and pigs have regretted it !
Winchester model 92 .....! My Fav.
Outstanding!!
Wow, who knew that my Dad's Model 39A would be the number one lever action. 70 years old and shoots better than I do today. And then, add his Winchester 94 and I now have two from the list.
Of all my lever actions my all time favorite is my Winchester 9422 .22Mag. Incredibly smooth. In 20 years use in Montana it was my go to rifle for small game and varmints. I always shot it with iron sights and routinely took out critters at 100-150 yards.
I agree with you Truscott, the Win. 9422 sits on top of this guy's 39-a, I managed to aquire 3,..one in XTR .22 mag., Regards from S.TX.
Yup , I'm a maggie guy , and one in my stable .
I have a Winchester 9422M..bought in 1982.. Not manufactured for some time now, worth much more than original price
Always wanted a 22 mag ended up with everything else
@@richardmoorer2668 My 9422 is now worth 4X what I paid for it and I got to use it every day for 25+ years. Still as smooth and accurate as ever.
I've been fortunate enough to have owned a variety of lever actions. I currently have, and are some of my favorites, a savage 99f in 308, a Winchester 1895 in 405, a Winchester 71 in 348, a Winchester 94 in 30-30, a Winchester 64 in 25-35, a Winchester 92 in 44 mag, a Winchester 92 in 25-20, and a Winchester 9422 in 22 mag. Wonderful rifles, fun to hunt with.
Like the .30-30 round, .25-35 in Winchester 94s earned that multi-million-seller model -- 1894 initially, then simply 94 -- the moniker "deer rifle" that became interchangeable.
However when shooting the lighter carbine version, at the range or plinking -- one can tolerate shooting two to three times as many .25-35 shells than .30-30s because of the marked, diminished difference in recoil. If one tends to shoot frequently or when one passes from middle age to senior status the differences are more significant.
While I disagree with a few of your choices and their order, I thoroughly enjoyed this video. Thank you for taking the time to produce and post it!
Winchester 32 Special, my dads deer gun. Hard to find rounds for it now. Great bush gun.
The one that is obviously omitted is the Marlin 336. This model is one of the most popular rifles/carbines in the history of our country. I do not know how it can be omitted. One of my personal favorites is the Marlin 1894.... great little lever rifle.
What happened to the 1892?? Probably the most used lever, the verity of calibers 38/357 to 454 casual 16” to 24”, blued, SS and case hardened. It’s what John Wayne carried, come on. God Bless Texas 🤙🏼❤️😊🤠
So strange not mentioning the number one cowboy rifle in history…model 92 is used in almost every western ever made…
Without the 1892, this list is null and void.
Rossi 1892 model in 454 casull. Shoot 45lc. Single load 45 Schofield and 45 American possibly.
Handing guns down from Father to child is a connection that cannot be broken. A kid buying his first gun is also never forgotten. My son, now 24, wanted a 1911 in 45 ACP. He worked and saved and went to the gun shop with me to buy the Rock Island that he could afford. He REALLY wanted the Colt 1911 that was next to it. He put his money on the counter, and I, unknown to him, put down the remainder that paid for the Colt. The look on that boys face was unforgettable. That was 10 years ago now, and not a month goes by that he talks about acquiring that Colt. He says he will pass it down to HIS son. PS, he later bought a Rock Island to burn rounds thru and keeps the prized gun he got with his Dad, in well used but pristine condition. He will also receive the P-38 bring back my Dad passed on to me from WW II. He liberated it from an SS Hauptman in battle.
@MW
I couldn't be happier for both of you!!,... Regards from S. TX.
Great story. Your a nice dad 😂
I have a Browning BL-22 with beautiful tiger maple stock.
I wasn't expecting it to be on the list but it's fun to shoot and an accurate squirrel rifle
Thank you !
Winchester model 1892 is my all time fave…#one imho.
Enjoyed the article of the 10 Best Lever Action Rifles Ever Made. Although there is no mention of the 32 Winchester Lever Action Rifle(s)!
I have a 1892 Winchester in 44/40 that a blind man can hit the target consistently!!!God bless Winchester.
The gun that could be loaded on Sunday and shot all week was the Spencer. It was a lever action that held 7 cartridges and was in use before the Henry
"Lynn Talafuse," For the full quote you forget "damned Yankee" before "rifle." Secondly, and more importantly, you are mistaken with your claim the stated comment was about the Spencer.
"Confederate Colonel John Mosby, who became infamous for his sudden raids against advanced Union positions, when first encountering the Henry in battle called it 'that damned Yankee rifle that can be loaded on Sunday and fired all week.' Since then that phrase became associated with the Henry rifle."
Most gun hobbyists and Civil War armchair commanders / historians already know that phrase backwards and forwards, BUT just to validate this correction, anyone can do a Google search and in 2/10th of a second confirm the legendary phrase uttered about this iconic firearm.
Winchester model 88, 308 super accurate,I have one and love it, it’s a gem
Savage Model 99 .308 is my favorite. So smooth and balanced.
Mine didn't make the list. 1892 Winchester trapper takedown. Nice little rifle and very accurate in .44 mag. It was the 2018 shot show special and I'll never part with it.
Model 94 is a must
In 2019 I purchased a new Winchester Model 1866 “Yellow Boy” in .44-40. It was made in 2019. It has a 24” octagonal barrel. I took a buck with it that year. It’s my understanding that Winchester has discontinued it again in 24” barrel length, but I did see a new 1866 model with a round 20” barrel just a couple of weeks ago.
I'm a 75 yr old life-long gun enthusiast. No doubt in my blood as dad was experimenting with custom 22 high velocity rifles 218 zipper I think it was he passed on to my brother. What he passed on to me was my granpa's deer gun that he used hunting deer in east Texas before turn of the Century, in late 1800s. I read in Gun Digest once an article discussing my gun. Apparently very rare. It is a whitneyville Armory 44-40 lever gun with a manufacture date a few months earlier than the Winchester 1866 rifle. Winchester one in court, but the article talked of how rare a saddle ring carbine rifle of this model would be, and I'm proud to own just such a gun.JM Davis gun museum had some early Whitneyville rifles but said they doubted any of my gun still existed. Well it does. Good video
Winchester Model 1892 is #1 for me. I own one each in 44 Mag and 45 Colt. A light, strong and fast handling lever action. Used in many western movies. John Wayne loved them.
Savage arms should bring back the the model 99. That’s a great rifle!
I want a Savage 99 soooo much
I'd pay the high for it everyone says it'll cost.
Henry for me made in American or not at all
My trusty 1892 is still my personal favorite. It's such a handy and fun gun.
Totally agree. Mine too!
I had Marlin 32 Special . It was a wonderful gun . Everytime I went hunting with it somebody was always trying to buy it from me . When my hunting days were over I sold it to a good friend. He's still using it today .
I have an 1894 made in 1908 , hex barrel . Sweetheart of a rifle
The Marlin 336 was probably the most purchased and used 30.30 of all. And it was a great rifle. I am amazed it did not make the list.
I own two. The first one, a 336C, I bought in 1979 in Atlanta, TX. The 2nd one I bought at a gun show 10 years ago in Andalusia, AL. It was a private party sale. The stock was really beat up. There was surface rust all over. Paid $50 for it and it shoots great. Ugly on the outside, beautiful on the inside, where it counts.
My 336 is deadly accurate. My go to for demonstrations with new shooters. Love that gun.
I have a Marlin 336 that I got from my father that was built in 1973. It has never been fired. It’s a 30 30.
@@davidkihn770 Why haven't you fired it? It's a fine rifle. I had one back in the day. But I traded it for a Winchester 32 Special 1894 octogon barrel built in 1913 and some cash. It was stolen from me during a home burglary in 1977. A few years ago, I found a Marlin 336 built-in 1978. Now at least, I have a Marlin again. 30/30, of course.
@@deaddocreallydeaddoc5244 I guess I am not a gun person. I get no joy from shooting a gun or killing a living animal.
I'm impressed with the smooth action of the henry....I'm hooked.
Winchester 1892
i like the 1892 Winchester lever action with the extra large loop like the rifleman used i wouldnt mind having that rifle.
After sitting through all the Winchesters on this list and not disagreeing I was pleasantly surprised with Numbers 1 & 2. Thanks!
Good video, but it would have been nicer if you actually showed an 1860 Henry, which looked nothing like the modern Henry rifle that you showed. It loaded completely differently and was nothing like the one on the video.
I lost my Marlin Golden Mountie 39A in hurricane Katrina. It was the best rifle I ever had. I agree with you placing it #1 on your list.
Nice video
In 1969, I bought a Glenfield 30 lever action 30-30. I too saw the Rifleman TV show in the early 1960s. That is why I wanted this rifle. I only use Winchester 30-30 ammo.
I agree about the Winchester Model 88 and the Sako Finnwolf, but who has ever actually seen one? As a young left-handed shooter in the 1960's and '70's, I had almost no left-handed bolt rifles to choose from. So, I went with, and stayed with leverguns. Since I wanted to hunt with a scope-sighted rifle, I finally settled on the Marlin 39A and the Browning BLR in 7mm-08. Over the years I seemed to have killed as much small game, big game, and varmints as my right-handed friends, so I guess I'm doing alright. Thank God for lever-actions!
i have a model 88 in .243 caliber-it was also offer in a 308 caliber--I have had for 40 yrs and still think it is a great gun, i thought it was anyway, maybe not-also have a 39A which is OK, but i like my 88 by far better.
My Wife is a lefty with her 88 and has pulled the trigger with safety on a few times. I found you can change the cross bolt around for leftys in a few minutes. Finest sleekest looking solid and accurate rifle made.
I have a 1894 Winchester 25-35. It is a excellent caliber pretty quick and with the flip up rear sights it's quite accurate. I've shot deer at over 300 yards with this rifle that was manufactured in 1899. I don't understand why they quit making them.
Love my Marlin 336 CS. Balance is perfect. Also have a Winchester Model 94 "Antlered Game", but have never fired it.
My 39A is an ok rifle IMO but I much prefer my model 92 in 44 mag for just fun. The one I most regret selling.......... Savage 99 in 284.
That 1895 Winchester belongs on your list. It was the first lever action that could chamber pointed bullets.
100%.
When I was a kid, a friend of mine got a Winchester Model 94 .22 XTR gloss stock for Xmas. My parents were never going to get me something like that. And about 3 decades ago came across one in a pawn shop. I think it might of been about $150. Sweetest and smoothest shooting rifle ever. Only to be out done by a Weatherby Vanguard .223 I got for my son at a gun show.
Lot of errors but it's just good to see a lever action video.
The 1892 Winchester a great lever action rifle, handy and fun to shoot. Chambered in the 25-20 in the early Winchesters to the hard hitting 454 Casual in modern clones. Mine is in the poplar 38 special 357 mag. Fun gun to shoot.
You should have a channel instead of Mad Man. You seem to know far more.
Couldn't agree more. Mine is the classic Big Loop Carbine chambered in .44 WCF (.44-40), the Chuck Conners rifle. Also like my 94 in .30 WCF.
@@seniorsurvivor7381 I had a Rossi in 44-40 kick myself for trading it off. They didn’t make a lot of them in that chambering.
I got a modern model 92 chambered in 44 mag but I have most every lever action in most caliber it’s what I collect and shoot love them all
I can't imagine the '92 being left out of this list. Maybe the author omitted it because it's basically a downsized '86. The 1892 is by far my favorite! Surprised the 1895 nor the 71 not making the cut too.
I owned three Winchester 1894's a .22 Rimfire Carbine, a.22 Magnum Rimfire Rifle for rabbits and a .375 Rifle for larger game; an antique BSA Martini .310 (Greener) Cadet single shot lever action rifle for small game; and an 1895 Marlin Rifle in .45/70 Govt. for big pigs.
Thanks for the vid. I love my 30 30 model 36 Marlin made in 1941. It still shoots very accurately. My dads deer gun.
My first rifle was a savage 99c in 308. It has provided a lot of Pennsylvania white tail.
I liked my 99C so much , I bought a second one , both 308
I like the 336 Marlin and the 99 Savage.
You forgott the spencer lever action rifle wich was the first repeating rifle that enter servise in late 1861
I had a winchester 94Ae trapper in 3030. Paid $ 575 in 1992. Wish I still had it. Was awesome
The Win 9422 should have been included. It is an extremely accurate and reliable gun and so very handsome. The action is smooth as it can get as well and it also shoots s,l ,and lr rounds.
Better gun than the marlin or the Henry, in my opinion.
I have my family's 38-55 win with octagon barrel 1894, i have a photo oh my grandfather around age 5 with that rifle on the wall the rife still works perfectly
take it hunting
My Marlin 336C is one of my most cherished possessions.
My 1st lever action was a model 94 I got 38 years ago. The kids bought me a new Henry 44 mag. I love that gun. I have hunted with it a few times and been successful but it's one of those guns that are too pretty to take outside.
I have a marlin model 336 30/30 made in 1972 and it has never let me down.
Alaskan Inuit love 3030 levers.
Got the Savage 1899 out here in Zimbabwe, Africa. Inherited when our dad passed away ladt November 2022 at 72 years old.
My Great Uncle Johnny had a Marlin 30-30 Lever Action with no crossbolt saftey decades ago. My dad wants one.
the 1833 Marlin 30-30 is my fav. It holds ten 30-30 rounds in the tube and one in the chamber
I inherited a used Marlin 336 when I was 12 .Great Brush gun .50 years later passed it along to my son and he is in the process of restoring it.Somewhere along the way traded for a Model 94 .Both are in his safe.Great memories .
My first rifle was a Sav Mod 99, 24" bl, in 300 Sav. It has been my lucky deer gun. I don't know why but at some point I bought a Win FW bolt gun in 7mm-08 and it now serves as my deer gun...but that great old Sav tags along as backup or a loaner and sometimes on a whim it is my first choice. Great gun! Everyone should have a Mod 99.
Kinda sad the sav mod 99 is not on this list, when it is the "american" deer rifle as it has been in the number one spot since the early 1900s
@@WillToleration The 99 was in the #3 spot in this video (?)...but you are correct they're a great gun, easy to carry with a hand under the magazine area. quick to shoulder and for a repeat shot at a runner. They just got too expensive to make compared to their competitive options.
Savage 99 in 303 Savage, 250 Savage, 22 HI Power, 300 Savage as well as in 243 and 284. I love my 99's
Everybody forgets the Winchester model 88. It belongs in there somewhere.
It was not made long enough to garner a following. It introduced the 284 Win and its aggravating rebated rim design. They never chambered it for many cartridges other than 284 Win either. JMHO
I have two model 88 Winchesters, .243 caliber that have the accuracy of a bolt action rifle because of the unique locking mechanism of the bolt. I like the fact it has a clip magazine so I can carry an extra one preloaded. The oldest one is a middle 60's model the other one is a later model, great rifles!
The Winchester model 88 was a great rifle and with unbelievable accuracy. It was Father’s deer rifle and handed off to his grandson who bears his name.
I own an 88 chambered in .308, and it can out shoot most modern rifles.
Not a clip but a magazine.
Great guns I have a couple of them
@@willyswagon57 My Dad and I did a lot of reloading, so it was fairly cheap shooting, from rabbits to big game!
My favorite is still my 1892 big loop in .44 WCF. For hunting, my 1894 in .30 WCF, though I still have a soft spot for my H009B Henry.
At 5:26 did the person narrating this actually claim "the action and trigger [of the Winchester 1886] is made from glass which is very hard to find these days"??? I'll bet it is. But not as hard as it is to find the chicken feathers they made the barrels out of. LOL
I've got an 1886 saddle ring carbine in 45/90. Love it and definitely no glass in it. I had to listen twice. Not sure what he means.

This guy doesn't know much about lever rifles, we need to inform him that the action on the 1886 is smooth as glass, and not that is made of glass like he states, and also show him why the Win. 9422 sits on top of his 39-a.,...Regards.
Nothing but an AD for the Henry Rifle Company
I have a Marlin 336C , bought from my roommate while attached to NAS North Island. It is a 71 made. Real accurate lever action.
I own a Savage model 99 that was made in 1910. It's a 300 caliber. I love this gun. It was my father's and it was left to me when he passed. I've shot several other lever action guns but there's just something about this gun when I pick it up. It literally feels like it's weighted perfectly.
I have a 99F in 308 win. I bought it in early ‘70s after I left the Army where I carried the M14
The Savage 99 in 300 savage is a great rifle. The 300 Savage is actually the parent case for the 308 winchester. Basically an improved 300 Savage. I'd suggest you double check the date on that serial number, the 300 Savage was invented in 1920. Enjoy
@@christopherwereley2116 yeah, you're right. I can't remember the exact date. I went on savages website once and punched the serial number in and it told me when it was made. But I think 1910 is a bit early
@@christopherwereley2116 so I did a bit more investigating. Serial number 159080 was actually manufactured in 1914. Apparently Savage was in the habit of manufacturing things and letting it sit on the shelf for a few years before it actually was assembled and shipped. I agree that there is information saying that the 300 wasn't invented until 1920 but they had other model 99s already available. Chambering would have been a simple adjustment. But anyway every time I look that number up it's between 14 and 17.
I believe Rosevelt might have used the Winchester 1895 in the 30-06 and the 405 in the US and Africa.
Also the 308 is nothing more than a 300 savage with a 300 case with a longer neck to hold the bullet better.
Thy for posting a fairly compilation. However, I did not see any comment on 9422 Winchester.
