If memory serves, I think it was the largest chambering in the 76 Winchester. Seems like they loaded around a 300 grain bullet. I think someone is making a reproduction.

Did you find one? It'd be a neat gun to hunt with.

Uberti is making a reproduction of the Winchester '76 in this caliber.I like the old straight wall cartridges,I know nothing about this one.I found one place that actually loads for this round at $120 A box of 20! But I'm still intrigued by this old round,and I agree,would love to hunt with one.

Winchester makes a 45/90 that I keep looking at, a 50/95 sounds like a neat round.

I’ve got a 50/70 rolling block and a 50/140 C. Sharps. The old 50s are pretty fun to tinker with.

A fellow shooter at the range I went to in Alaska had one of the Uberti copies. Nice rifle. Slightly bottle necked case. He took a few moose with it. He said moose don’t like it one bit. I shot it a few times when we both at the range. Recoil was not bad at all. If I stumbled on to a used one locally I’d probably do something financially irresponsible.


Trail cameras and fresh snow have broke a lot of trapper’s hearts.

If I cave and get one Ill do just that.I made a call today to see what the out the door price would be if I ordered one.I was kind of surprised when I asked her if they'd ever ordered anything from Uberti and she said yes,we've ordered them before.

She didn't get back to me,but I looked up on Ubertis website and their running them for about $1200.00.,$1129.99 to be exact.To tell you the truth,I thought they were going to be higher than that,quite a bit higher.The first time I heard of the round Uber to had made a copy of a rare Winchester in 50/95,if I recall right the price was $2700.That shut me down fast.

Don’t have a 50/95 but I do have a model 1886 in 50/110 and it’s a thumper, I don’t think you would regret one in 50/95

I love the old calibers and am glad that companies like Uberti and others are bringing some of them back

By the way a set of dies and some basic brass from Dixie gun works makes it cheap to shoot, well relatively speaking anyways
