Browning BLR in .223?
Considering purchasing a BLR in 223. I understand these guns haven't been made in about 10 years. I love lever guns. First gun I ever shot was my dad's 39A. I now have one of those, a Henry in 22 mag, and a Marlin 336. What I started out to buy was just a nice bolt 223 mainly for punching holes in paper from a long way away, but maybe for some coyote hunting, varmit control, and just a general purpose rifle. Light recoil, good range, and relatively cheap ammo. I didn't really even consider getting a lever gun because I just didn't think there was such a thing. Then I stumbled upon the BLR in 223. Any opinions on this gun for just an all around general purpose rifle? How does the action compare to other lever guns? Will I like this as much as my more traditional tube mag rifles?
