Description:
Out of the 63,871 Winchester Model 1876's made, only 3,284 were in 50-95 caliber. With the 26 inch round barrel, that makes this one of only 873 guns in this configuration. Interestingly, most of these rifles were fitted with 22-inch round barrels rather than the 26-inch length recommended by Winchester for giving the best results with this caliber. Winchester also recommended a short magazine to give a lighter and more balanced gun. So this should be a good performing rifle! This is a professionally restored Winchester in a desirable caliber with mint bore that letters in this configuration with shotgun butt, round barrel, 1/2 mag, and plain trigger. If you are looking to fill a hole in your collection, or if you just like nice examples of rare Winchesters, this would be a good gun for you.
