Like many here, when I was a youngster I read about TR using the 405 in Africa. The rifle and cartridge were dead and never really thought anymore about it.

Then in the 80's or 90's Dave Scoville wrote about it and Browning made a run of 1895s. I caught on when Winchester made a run of 1895s in 405. I purchased the first one to arrive at the Dundee Cabelas. I purchased a reproduction of the Lyman 38 that Buffalo Arms was selling and had it installed.

I've killed a few deer and a black bear with it. It's a fun rifle to shoot.
