I have a Winchester 1895 TD in .405 and it is quite nice. It takes down real easy too. Very good design to me. | |||

Thanks for the info didn't know winchester made a takedown? 405 is a bit large for what i want to do was thinking more along the lines of a 308 or 7mm08.cheers | |||

I´m thinking, that zhaba is meaning with a "Browning lever takedown" the BLR-takedown lever rifles. This rifles are prodced for rounds like the 7-08 or .308Win. The "classic" rifles like the M86 or M95, made by Winchester and in the past by browning, are chambered for rounds like the .45-70 or .30-40Krag, .30-06 or .405WCF. Martin | |||

I also have an 1895 take down in 405 WCF. It is very accurate. I can say that I do like takedown guns. DOUBLE RIFLE SHOOTERS SOCIETY | |||

I have 2 of the Browning BLR's 450 Marlin takedowns. Excellent rifles. Shoot very well. Drawback is the stocks are pretty but easily scratched and dented. Mine are obviously walnut and not SS versions. | |||

zhaba: I have a blued pistol grip BLR takedown in 450 Marlin an I really like it. The takedown feature makes it really easy to clean. I think they make it in a stainless as well.
