Re: Winchester Mod. 1895 Takedown Kal. 405WCF

Made in 1905 a .38-72 WCF.
Providence Tool Co. reproduction of the Lyman 21 sight.
Bore is in excellent condition, .380” groove.


The old black powder loads were about 1475’/sec with a 275grain bullet. By going “Nitro for Black” this can safely run 1750-1800’/sec, close on the heels of the .375 2-1/2 Flanged Nitro.
Brass these days from Buffalo Arms or Bertram.
