Lever Action Supreme
Re: Lever Action Supreme
Great points
Re: Lever Action Supreme
I know this isnt traditional as the old style levergun but I actually dont mind the looks of this one or even the Smith 1854. Both calibers this one comes in are great choices for reloaders and buying cheap ammo. Ive played with the 300 blackout and its a fun little fella.

Al, I've never played around with the BO, how does it compare to the 30-30?BigAl52 wrote: ↑Sat Jan 25, 2025 9:58 amI know this isnt traditional as the old style levergun but I actually dont mind the looks of this one or even the Smith 1854.

Better bullets I know, but ballistics wise.
Does it have a realistic advantage?

Re: Lever Action Supreme
300 BO was really designed for the AR platform. It doesnt have the punch a 30-30 does but its simple to load for and cheap to shoot. H-110 at about 18 gr is all you need for the case which is a shortened 223 and necked out to 30 cal. I had fun with it but it fell victim of to many guns I dont shoot.Vaquero wrote: ↑Sat Jan 25, 2025 12:54 pmAl, I've never played around with the BO, how does it compare to the 30-30?BigAl52 wrote: ↑Sat Jan 25, 2025 9:58 amI know this isnt traditional as the old style levergun but I actually dont mind the looks of this one or even the Smith 1854.

Re: Lever Action Supreme
Its appeal is in its cheap versatility. Brass is inexpensive, IE you can make it from 223. It can run bullets from 110grns to 230 grains. It can be had in 1:3 twist for solid copper round to all possibilities up to 1:10 for jacketed lead.Vaquero wrote: ↑Sat Jan 25, 2025 12:54 pmAl, I've never played around with the BO, how does it compare to the 30-30?BigAl52 wrote: ↑Sat Jan 25, 2025 9:58 amI know this isnt traditional as the old style levergun but I actually dont mind the looks of this one or even the Smith 1854.

You can load the 110s up a bit, and the 230s down to subsonic levels for shooting suppression.
That's most of what I shoot 300blk-wise. Suppressed subs make for great hunting rounds out to about 140 yds.

Re: Lever Action Supreme
I probably won’t be buying one of these either as the price of this gun is around 1200.00. I don’t think I want one that bad

Re: Lever Action Supreme
I agree, in the above photo, I like the tri-pod way better than that rifle.
I'd rather drop $1200 on an antique Winchester of Marlin than something that resembles those.

Re: Lever Action Supreme
I have a Ruger American Ranch bolt in 5.56 ,that also takes ar mags,that does everything that the Henry Supreme does for less than half the price.
