    I haven't saw any personally.. it's generally not suggested putting a FMJ 'pointed' centerfire round into the tube of a lever action. I was told in my gun course that most soft tip or hollow point rounds are fine.

    Anyone have more experience in this?

    There is this gun manufacturing company called Browning.
    They make a rifle called a BLR or Browning Lever Rifle if you want the long name.
    From .223 to 7mm and a few in between calibers.
    I'm am not sure if the .223 is in current production though.

    Hmm, Browning BLR is the only one I am aware of. There's probably a few others out there somewhere.
