My interpretation, from a historical perspective: A carbine length lever action ( 40 inch or less in total length ), in rifle Calibers ranging from 0.308 - 0.458, usually starting at .30-30, 32 Win special, .33 .348 Winchester, 35 Remington, .356, .358, .375, .38-55 Winchester, 444 Remington, .450 Marlin, ending at .45-70.
Such a carbine is ideal for areas of thick underbrush and berry bushes that entice deer, black bear, and wild boar.
A more modern interpretation might also include rifle caliber semi- auto or bolt action carbines, such as those in the category of patrol rifles, or scout rifles, in Calibers 6.5 creedmoor, or 0.308 Winchester ( or 7.62x51).
