I bought a nice deluxe 1886 rifle last winter and needed to shoot a deer with it. I had a doe tag, so I decided to get it with the '86. She is a real trophy and the gun looks good, back in the field...

Very nice ! But please tell me that rifles either 45-90 or 50-110
I agree, I would love to have it in a 50, but I am not interested in a 45-90. The 45-70 is still the classic chambering. I do have an even more rare 50. It is a Colt lightning that was a special order gun, lettered and sent to Bombay as a cat gun. It is still out there killing stuff too..

So now You go out and shoot all this Game with average Guns , while the Bullard waits quietly for another turn.......... .. .
Got the Bullard cleaned and ready to go. I still have another doe tag to use it for. I did get grouse with it earlier...
Just about Everyone has an '86 of some kind to talk about , but nooobody has a Bullard to shoot and Hunt with . Blessings to You and Have a Great Thanksgiving. .
A few years back when I was actively collecting mainly Marlin levers I always thought it would be really cool to have a WIN 1876 in 50-95 a WIN 1886 in 50-100/500-110 and a Colt in 50-95 . Never got any of the three !

I just read an article on the Bullard. Dang shame no one makes a reproduction. Seems like a really awesome design
