It's unfortunate that so many hunters are lazy tree-stand sitters or just plain road hunters which results in comments like these. If hunting was about waking up early to sit and hope animals came near me, I'd never do it. Thankfully I live in the West where I get to hike deep into the backcountry to find game.
About lever actions, I'm thankful to own a Winchester Model 94 chambered in 30-30. It's such a beautiful gun I really should make it a safe queen, but it's also such a great timber rifle that I just have to take it with me when I go out.
