Winchester Centennial out for the 250 year celebration

Post by Bearskinner »

I haven’t had the 1876 Centennial Winchester out in a couple years, so I’m loading up some light trail boss loads to take to the shoot in a couple weeks. Produced in 76, a very early serial number (3 digit gun) 150 year old 45/75. There’s a wonderful story on the rifle since its creation, and we’re the second family to steward its ownership. It’s always a joy to take out and share with friends.

A lever gun just doesn't get any more classic than an 1876.

I don't have any REAL Winchester 76's, mine are all Uberti's. But they are my favorites.
