There are better options.
Most of what we perceive to be true about lever action rifles is based on a century of us, our fathers, and our grandfathers watching Hollywood cowboy movies. Lucas McMcain was able to get off a dozen shots in a couple of seconds with a modified rifle shooting pistol rounds. In the real world that ain't happening, especially if you plan to hit anything.
The military seriously considered lever actions over 100 years ago and correctly determined that a bolt gun was the better choice. That is still true today.
* While it is possible to shoot a lever action slightly faster than a bolt gun the real difference is slight, especially with rifle cartridges. I can get off 3 rounds from a 308 bolt rifle in 2.1 seconds, a 30-30 in 1.7 seconds and a pistol caliber lever action in 1.5 seconds. That ain't much of an advantage.
* With the requirement that all 3 shots hit a paper plate at 50 yards I can do it with all 3 at right at 4 seconds, and I was faster with the bolt gun.
* With a lever action you must stand or sit up exposing yourself to return fire in order to operate the action. A bolt gun can be operated in the prone position or any other supported position faster than either a pump or lever action.
* With similar barrel lengths a bolt gun is lighter. Most people think of lever actions as light and quick handling. All of my sporter weight bolt guns are lighter with scopes on them than my lever action 30-30's with no scope. Even my heavy barreled target rifle, with a big scope on it is only 1/4 lb heavier than a Marlin 30-30 with a 1-4X20 scope on it.
* When it comes to ruggedness, reliability and accuracy it isn't even close, the bolt gun wins. Not to mention the ability to use much better rounds with about the same recoil.
I own over a dozen lever rifles and like them a lot. But if forced to give up semi-auto rifles such as my AR's I'd feel much better with a bolt gun in my hands set as a "Scout" type rifle. I don't believe that it has to exactly meet all of the Scout criteria. But a bolt gun with a 16-20" barrel in 223, or any of the 308 size cartridges with a detachable magazine holding 3-10 rounds and either good irons or low powered optics would be a better option than a lever 30-30. And it would cost less.
I have each of these with low power optics on them. Would pick up my AR's first, but either of these would be reached for before my lever guns.
