Centenial rifle
Can anyone tell me the how many were made and in which calibers. I wonder if the 45-60 was more popular than the 45-75.

I've read that the 45/75 was the most popular chambering.

A few years back, CDNN had some Winchesters (I believe) that were chambered in 45-60. In the advert, they claimed that it would chamber and fire 45-70. Is that possible?
Edit: Found an old CDNN catalog and they were .45-90s. I should know better than to rely on my memory; It's shot. Last edited by gyvel; July 6, 2014 at 12:56 PM. |

A few years ago I counted all the guns in the old west lol. My notes show there were 63,871 76's produced. I too believe 45-75 was the most popular chambering.
