The purpose of leverguns is short & handy. Long ones defeat the purpose.

Where did you come up with this "definition" of a lever-action rifle? "Defeats the purpose" of what? Many lever-action
rifles of the past, certainly including the Winchester Model 88, the Sako Finnwolf, the Browning BLR and the Savage Model 99, have been chambered successfully in relatively long-range cartridges that perform every bit as well as equivalent bolt-action rifles-and with the same length barrels. And lever-actions have no corner on
carbines.
