Re: Two nice Winchester m1895


..every time I see a Winchester in .405 or .50/110 with a steel crecent buttplate I see a misconception where the designers still adapted a frontloader rifle design to the then-new rifles.
I have shot a lot of Winchesters with crecent buttplate..they are slippery on the shoulder, the shooter have to in-a-cripple-like posture mash his head down to the stock = poor ergonomics.
The shotgun butt however improved a lot on the type rifles. Yes..the crecent buttplate does look gracefull in a collectors cabinet.
