The strong and reliable action of the Winchester® Model 1886 was designed to handle the then-new, heavier 45-70 Govt. cartridge, developed by the U.S. Government in 1873. The Model 1886 Short Rifle features a deeply blued receiver, barrel and lever, along with a matching blued steel end cap and steel crescent butt plate.

The classic straight grip Grade I walnut stock allows quick shouldering and has an elegant satin finish. The full-length tubular steel magazine holds eight 45-70 Govt. cartridges. The receiver is drilled and tapped for the addition of an optional side mounted receiver sight. A top-tang safety, adjustable rear buckhorn style sight and a gold bead Marble Arms front sight complete the graceful profile of this historic model.
