Haha, I for one am not upset Arch! I agree with you about the lever gun. My "Theory" was just the commonality of ammunition for both weapons in a Major Caliber.

I also agree with you about the 22! In a survival situation a 22 would, I think, prove much more useful than a "Major" caliber. You can kill almost anything with a 22, especially here in the good old U.S.of A.
