Mike Hunter wrote an article for the Collector magazine about the two Model 1894 Carbines made in 22 High Power (S/N 604001 and 604010).  The .228 bore diameter was nothing new for Winchester… the Single Shot rifles made for the 22 W.C.F. cartridge were the same .228 bore diameter.

That’s very interesting.  I confess I had forgotten the .22 WCF has a .228 bore diameter.  The two ’94 carbines you mention sound like fascinating pieces to me.  It makes me smile to know they exist.

I know this is an old post but I was going through my 1st addition Revised 1991 version.  On page 197 he talks about some 22 in barrels produced in the 200,000 range that were in “very unusual calibers”.   This would be around 1903 and 1904. Anyone have an idea of what he was talking about?
