I have a Winchester 1886. 22" fast tapered barrel, 45-70, half-tube magazine, shotgun style butt. Serial number dates to 1910. Flat top rear sight, front ramp withivr insert bead in the blade. I see these listed as Light rifles and Ultralight rifles. What is the correct model designation?
"Winchester never used the term "lightweight" for their Model 1886. They only catalogued the Extra Light Weight. The pre-1902 Extra Light Weight rifles should have case color finished levers and hammers."
Also while often called such, the 33wcf models never had a lightweight designation of any kind.
