Where do you look when you want a classic lever action with style that sets it apart from the rest, but not enough shine to risk spooking game? Easy -- our steel-framed Wildlife edition in one of America’s longest-lived hunting calibers, the venerable .45-70. This steel-framed model acknowledges a long history of hunting, and the lever action’s well-earned place in it for over 150 years. Subdued, with blued steel frame and furniture, it's also light in weight for long days on foot through dense brush and high mountain terrain. The H010WL in .45-70 is a trim powerhouse with its 18.43” barrel under semi-buckhorn rear and tall brass bead front sights. A checkered pistolgrip walnut stock, sling swivel studs, and ventilated black rubber recoil pad fill out the package. Engraving pattern features a 24K gold relief profile of a bear adorning the left side of the blued frame inside gold-accented scroll, line, and braided borders, with a gold relief image of a moose head on the right side. Built to bring home the bacon (or whatever your hunt takes you after), this special steel-framed Wildlife model is a cut above, and a point of pride.
