The only two I have:
Winchester/Miroku M1892 Short Rifle in .45 Colt, absolutely beautiful finish and fit and very accurate with my hand loads, also cycles SWC's, which my Henry will not. The strongest lever action out there, with the possible exception of the new Henry Long Ranger. Don't much care for the rebounding hammer, but seems to work O.K.
Henry Big Boy, also in .45 Colt, shoots as good as the '92, easier to unload, lack of a gate doesn't bother me, slick action. Will handle Buffalo Bore loads. Much easier to disassemble.
I'd hate to have to make a choice.
