Seeing as how I am always searching for odd Winchester parts, this piece could hardly be passed up. It is a part octagon front end for an 1886 lightweight takedown rifle. The unusual caliber and configuration are a rarity, especially in the post 1900 years that the markings indicate. The caliber is .38-56 WCF and the bore is pristine, a huge factor in encouraging me to purchase the part which will be used for hunting.:)

38-56 is an usual one, especially for 2008. I hope you will post accuracy data as you develop loads.
