But lever guns done operate well in prone position

He's already shooting a foot off the ground and having to raise the rifle just to service the lever. I can shoot and cock a 303 Brit bolt action in prone with the barrel elevated about 5-6 inches or approx the height of your fist under the stock. and yes, your head is low. really low. and shots are good up to 150 yd.s

I can't operate a leaver at that height.
