I hate to see a lever action like that with a 50mm scope. Just ain't right....especially for a 44mag carbine with a 125 yard range or so....
Maybe just me but......
I don't disagree.
That being said I shot it against an unscoped .44 mag Deerfield carbine and an unscoped Marlin 1894 Cowboy Limited in .45 Colt.
The other two guns were about three-four inch groups, the .44 with the same ammo. This gun with the scope shot .5 moa twice.
Is it overkill at 100 yards. Probably. I would shoot a deer with any of the three at that distance. But was one more accurate with the scope. Yes and it wasn't close.
Edit to add, in other words I have shot dozens of pistol carbines of all kinds and have never shot one that accurately, whether it had iron sites, a scope, a red dot, or whatever. before this gun my most accurate is am old Winchester in 25-20, out to 50 yards.
