Circumstances differ - my 1895.405 Deluxe was purchased from a Winchester collector as an investment and for artistic appeal with approval of wife as every gun she has said "go buy it" has appreciated well and been a good investment. It is sooo pretty! :):):)

That gave me tacit approval to shop for a "shooter" and I found one at a very good price which looked NIB, but had already been fitted with a good recoil pad and Williams receiver sight AND sighted in! Included a couple boxes of 300 grain ammo too.
My shooter has taken a variety of game from feral hogs to big stuff like water buff and Cape Buff. As you know , it shoots bullets from 210 grains to 400 grains equally well.

I like the .405 WCF cartridge so well, that I abandoned plans for a .45- 90 double rifle, and bought this custom made .405 Double Rifle.

Again, with Nilgai taken recently down at Hondo, Texas; note my "after the kill" Texas camo:
