I habitually reach for the 73 short rifle, but the Henry's are still in my quiver ..
I do want to give honorarium to the JM Marlin 32/20 Classic 94 ....this thing is a tack driver, NOS from it's 1990 build date.
I'd use it if it were not button magazine only holds 7 rounds

To me, that's as nice a little "walking around" gun as a fellow could have.
Gabriel Law:
My main match rifle is a Pedersoli Colt Lightning in .45 Colt. It is very fast and positive, is easy to stay on target while working the action, and since I figured out what loads it loves, it never has hick-ups.

Well I do B-western mostly. I have a Marlin 94 Cowboy Ltd but much prefer my Henry steel Big Boy. The BB was out of the box slicker then the Marlin even after being through some slicking up and has just gotten better with use. I have put Marlin springs and ejector in it which helps a bit.
I have a Miroku Winni 73 which I occasionally run when not doing BW but the wood is so nice that I don't want to scuff it up. Nothing been done to it but run a match or two and it seems real smooth as well.
I have a Gold Rush lightning which I love in 357 (and run 357 brass trough) but seems to have a lot of issues. It is being sent to Lassiter for hopefully some of his magic.
Eyeballing a Navy Arms Pedersoli lightning. Expensive more than likely but Val (III) said sending samples to Lead Dispenser to make sure they run. If they can pass him, I would not have any problems, no where near that fast! (wish I was but like the billion Powerball wishes are just that).

1866....Why? Looks.....Caliber? 38/40 Ease of cleaning, good chamber sealing
I have an 1873 in 38-40 (in fact I have three of them Uberti and two 1800s Winchesters)...But I like the brass frame simply for style points.
