Any interest?

Thought I'd post a question for the SASS type guys first.... I have a 1886 Winchester I am thinking of putting up for sale. I used to do the SASS stuff but not in a long while.... Any one interested in a long range rifle? Thanks, MG

Not real familiar with it but googled and came up with this:

What do you have and what price range?

DC, 1886 Mfg. in 1887 5 digit SN# It was found in a cave somewhere in the NW US around the early 1900's and had been stored in a closet until I bought it about 20 years ago. The stock was broken and the rifling was gone in the last 10" of the barrel. I was into SASS then and I had a 1" oct. bull barrel installed and the entire rifle stripped and reblued. Fitted new high grade wood and a long range veneer sight.
It is chambered in .45/70. I also have extras that would go with it. A field re-loading box, bullets and bullet moulds. couple hundred rounds and some extra brass. Custom leather gun sleeve. Looking for 1250. I can post pics, but it is hard to get it all in one picture. It is a BIG rifle. MG
