If it says 45-85 WCF it is for the 1886. 45-90 length. But if it just says 45-85 it is shorter, 45-70 length, and for the Marlin, Ballard and Colt.

Yes Chuck; it is 45-90 length. A fella just dropped off a box ,(app. 50 lbs.), of old ammo, Winchester, Sharps, Peabody,Bullard, Marlin, and whole bunch of odd ball stuff that I don’t recognize.

I’m looking for a nice Sharps box in 45 1/10. Basically a 45-70 with thinner rims.

I’m just busy packing for the Calgary show, so I’ll go thru this stuff when I get home in a week or so.
