*WINCHESTER MODEL 1885 DELUXE HI WALL HEAVY TARGET RIFLE. SN 96727. Cal. 32-40. Beautiful deluxe target rifle with 30″ #4 weight oct bbl, windgage globe front sight, slot blank in rear seat and a Lyman tang sight. Lower tang is fitted with Schuetzen dbl set triggers and it has a Schuetzen-sized spur finger lever. Mounted with spectacular 3-4X, center crotch, flame grain American walnut with H-style checkered, black insert, schnabel tip forearm and capped pistol grip stock with Swiss cheekpiece and nickel plated brass Swiss buttplate. Forearm is factory mounted with a mushroom palm rest. Left side of lower tang, under the wood is marked with the assembly number “18419”, “XXX” and “SBCOH”. Rear face of buttstock, under the buttplate, has the matching assembly number which is also found inside the toe of the buttplate. These fine target rifles are rarely found today in orig configuration as the early target shooters were prone to making alterations to suit their individual styles & tastes.

Bbl retains about 98% crisp orig blue with only faint sharp edge wear and a couple of small spots on top flat by the rear sight seat and a small scratch over the chamber area which extends over the receiver ring; receiver retains 95-97% strong orig blue with some minor flaking, a couple of small scratches on right side and a small dent on right side; lever & hammer retain most of their orig case colors, moderately faded on outer face of the lever; buttplate retains 95-96% strong orig nickel. Stock has a hairline on left side of wrist at the receiver, otherwise wood is sound with only a few minor nicks & scratches and retains most of its strong orig varnish finish; palm rest is equally fine.
