That would be a nice game getter in a rifle. But my idea of a modern pistol caliber lever action would be a .357 Magnum Winchester 94 Trapper rechambered to .357 Maximum. It would need a little milling of the shell lifter for the longer cartridges and not much else modified. There are several good loads available from Reed's Ammunition & Research, LLC.
