The Model 1886 was Browning's first design for Winchester and the rifle that finally gave lever guns an action strong enough for the big blackpowder express cartridges. Its vertical sliding lug lockup is the ancestor of the Model 71 and the modern Browning BLR, and it remains one of the smoothest, strongest lever actions ever built. This Saddle Ring Carbine configuration in .45-70 Government wears a 22-inch blued barrel and the saddle ring on the receiver flat that gives the pattern its name.

Modern .45-70 loads deliver serious authority on elk, moose, and bear at woods distances. A rifle that shoots as well as it displays.
