I bought this one on my last trip up north to my cabin along with the 73 in my earlier post…..

George,
That is a really nice 1886 in a very desirable chambering. I assume the bore is as good as the rest of the rifle? If so, it should be a fine shooter.

I’m in agreement on a couple very nice honest finds.
Thanks for sharing!

The ’86 looks very decent – and in a great chambering.

Good score. I love 45-90. my only problem is the one picture that shows the lever, it appears to be blued. A rifle of that vintage should be CC I believe.
