Availability: In Stock
The Davide Pedersoli 1886 Sporting lever action rifle in .45-70 Government brings the aesthetic and handling of a classic Western workhorse to the modern shooter. This isn't a safe-queen—it's a serious rifle for hunters and sportsmen who appreciate the elegant simplicity of a period-correct design without sacrificing practical utility. The 26-inch octagonal barrel, color case hardened frame, and hand-checkered walnut furniture deliver the authentic look, while the 8-round magazine capacity and adjustable sights make it genuinely functional afield or at the range.
Built on the proven 1886 action, this Pedersoli rifle handles the potent .45-70 cartridge with the kind of smooth, reliable cycling that lever-gun enthusiasts demand. The 1-in-18 inch twist rate stabilizes the heavy bullets that make the .45-70 legendary for hunting big game and long-range shooting. Whether you're hunting elk, pursuing black bear, or just exploring what a properly made reproduction rifle can do, the balance and pointability of this rifle make it a natural choice. At 9.7 pounds and 45 inches overall, it carries well without feeling light or whippy.
The gun ships with traditional open sights—a dovetail front blade and adjustable buckhorn rear—so you're ready to go straight out of the box. The receiver is drilled and tapped for optics if you decide to modernize. That combination of flexibility is what makes the 1886 work for both purists and pragmatists alike. If you're drawn to the timeless lines of a lever action and the raw power of the .45-70, this Pedersoli is worth a close look.
