Overview

The Winchester Model 1886 is a lever-action rifle designed by John Moses Browning to handle the large, powerful cartridges of the era. It was Winchesters first true strong-action lever gun, replacing the toggle-link action of the 1873 and 1876 models. The 1886 could chamber heavy rounds like the .45-70 Government and .50-110 Winchester, making it suitable for large North American game.
