Hello all.
I was thinking the other day about the accuracy of a lever gun vs a bolt action. My theory (i'm very open to new concepts) is that a lever gun would be less accurate compared to a bolt action. Why you ask: the theory is that the main area (i'm not sure of its technical name) but where all the moving parts are would not be as stiff on a lever action compared to a bolt action.
Another thing I think I need to take into account is what is the gun being used for. For example I'd rather have a lever gun when pig hunting because i think it would be quicker to opperate and a bolt action. But if i want to shoot longer distances I would shoot with a bolt action.
Like I said i'm open to new ideas and theories as to which are more accurate.
Do you think that this theory is correct? Whats your oppinion?
Thanks all and safe hunting
