This video delves into the development of the Winchester lever-action rifle, focusing on the Model 1895. It highlights John Browning's design, particularly the innovative box magazine that replaced the traditional tube magazine to safely accommodate spitzer bullets with modern smokeless powders. The description details various chamberings, including .30-40 Krag, .30-03, .30-06, .303 British, and the notable .405 Winchester, also known as "Big Medicine." A significant portion of the production, nearly 300,000 units, was for the Russian military, chambered in 7.62x54R and equipped with stripper clip guides.
