The Lyman 21 is an excellent sight. Had one on an extra finish M-95 in 405 WCF. Wish I still had that old rifle. Killed my first elk with it in Colorado. I have a lot of 30-40 (30 Army) ammunition left from an old Model 95 . Killed deer with it in Arizona. The newer Hawk bullets work well in the 1895. Expand but penetrate. Interesting book noted back in November. Robert Service-"Tales of a Cheechako" which is one who has not wintered over a full year in the outback of Alaska-Canada.This same view of the Klondike was shared by Jack London.
Still have a couple of rapid taper smokeless 1886 rifles in 33 WCF, along with a few Model 71 pre-war rifles
