The Carbine is pretty decent. It has a very quick reload and good accuracy, and although the fire rate is a little slow, and it only has 7 rounds.

The Lancaster is the best overall. It has a good capacity (14 rounds), great accuracy, and a high fire rate, but it reloads slowly..

The Litchfield is the worst. While it has 16 rounds, and does the highest damage, it also has the slowest rate of fire, the worst accuracy, and a slower reload.

The Evans is alright. It has a very high capacity (for its time) of 26 rounds. However, it also has a VERY slow reload, and the lowest damage.

Overall, I would rank them

1. Lancaster

2. Carbine

3. Evans

4. Litchfield

Miss the Henry Repeater from RDR1, stick to my bolt action in 2.

My personal preferrance is the Evans repeater, because despite it having quite shitty damage, the 26 rounds of death do pretty well to replace that. Of course, the slow reload is terrible, especially in PVP, but hell, i don't do much of that and the 26 rounds are enough to kill most non-predator and even some predator animals.

Lancaster, always.
