Henry,
Good luck on finding a high-wall Carbine… Winchester made a sum total of just (20) of them, and (10) of them were exported to Australia. Finding a high-wall Musket will be somewhat of an easier task, as Winchester manufactured (483) of them (347 of them in 45-70).

Bet Am I correct in saying all the ’85 hi-wall carbines were 15″ bbl’s?

No, that is not correct. Of the (20) that were made, (17) of them had a 20-inch barrel, (1) with a 22-inch, and (1) with a 24-inch. The low-wall “Lightweight” Carbines were predominantly made with a 15-inch barrel.
