1885 Winchester Low Wall at the range

[David LaPell]

I took the 1885 Winchester out to the range today with a box of Winchester 100 grain lead rounds. It shoots a little low and to the right, but all things considered not bad for a gun pushing 130 years. I am thinking about looking for an original Lyman tang sight for it since I have the rear sight up all the way with the correct elevator. But what a pleasant gun to shoot!

It wants to shoot tight groups, I bet some judicious hand loading and attention to detail on some cast bullet loads would make some ragged one hole targets at pretty good distance

Looks and sounds like it is a fine shooting rifle!
