The center white circle is 1" in circumfrence BTW. Then drifted the rear sight back left towards my witness mark and shot the last three which landed spot on - good enough considering the shooter's eyes and rest. Adjusted sights up one click and drifted the rear sight to the right - shot the second three which landed too far right but about good for elevation. I was not as rock steady as shooting off of a set of bags from a bench, but it was good enough to give me an idea of sighting and accuracy with the chosen load.įirst three went to the lower left. Sat behind my tractor's grater blade and used it as a rest.

Such models included the lever-action Model 1873 (later known as “the gun that won the west”), the John Moses Browning designed Model 1892 (a lever action rifle of stronger design than the 1873), and the Model 1894 lever action rifle that is still popular among thick woods deer hunters almost 130 years after its introduction.ĭuring the Second World War, Winchester Repeating Arms was responsible for the development of the M1 Carbine, a short, light, compact, and portable semi-automatic rifle designed to meet the needs of support troops who found the standard issue rifle of the time, the M1 Garand, unnecessarily heavy and bulky. In the years that followed, Winchester Repeating Arms was responsible for the development of groundbreaking firearms designs that would become symbolic of America’s westward expansion. Winchester Arms quickly made a name for itself by introducing the Model 1866, which was an improved version of Benjamin Henry’s signature rifle (a loading gate on the side of the receiver and a wooden forend were added). In response, New Haven Arms’ largest stockholder, Oliver Winchester, blocked the attempted takeover by reorganizing New Haven Arms into the Winchester Repeating Arms Company. Benjamin Henry, the inventor of the first reliable lever action repeating rifle, disgruntled over what he perceived to be insufficient compensation for his work, lobbied the Connecticut State legislature to grant him ownership of the company. Winchester Repeating Company, a legendary institution in the history of American firearms production and innovation, was founded in 1866 in response to an attempted takeover of a predecessor company know as the New Haven Arms Company.
