The Winchester Model 1886 was a lever-action repeating rifle designed by John
Browning to handle some of the more powerful cartridges of the period.
Originally chambered in .45-70 Government, .45-90 Sharps, and .40-82 Winchester,
it was later offered in a half dozen other large cartridges, including the .50-110
Winchester.
