New 1886 in 45/90

I would buy it that’s a great rifle you could do a lot of different loads . I have a original .45-70 great rifle.

I always hate it when the OP does not come back with the results. The 45/90 was on Gunbroker of course. I sent several emails to the owner. I never received a response. It is a leap of faith to purchase a firearm that you have not actually seen in person. It is too much a leap when the owner will not respond to a question. I just could not hit the "buy it now" button under these circumstances.

I still had the fever. Like I stated before, I have wanted a 1886 for a very long time. So, I hit the "buy it now" button on a new Winchester 1886 Deluxe rifle in 45/70. It cost more, but it makes sense. I have dies and brass for the 45/70. If you subtract the cost of the dies and brass, it may actually be the better deal.

Thank you to everyone who replied to my 45/90 questions. This is a great forum.

Im having the same issue with my 45-70. Its incredibly finicky about bullet profile

Looking forward to the pic's. Probably a better choice, the 45/70. What can the 45/90 do that the 45/70 can't do?

45-90 will hold about 20 more grains of 3F if you are so inclined.
