Browning 1885 in 30-06.

28 inch octagonal barrel.

Made in 1998.

Beautiful walnut with amazing fiddleback. The Browning high gloss finish shows something different at each angle.

Never hunted with. Less than 10 shots ever fired. Excellent condition with fantastic wood. Very minor handling mark as per picture. It is so faint that it is unnoticeable without magnifier on photo.

Comes with the required Talley base and 30mm rings in order to mount a scope. This gun requires a scope as it does not come with any open sights from the factory. Check my other ads to see if I have any 30mm scopes still available and, if interested, I can ship together. If no 30mm scopes are listed, I do not have any available to sell so no need to ask.

I will include the Browning Heritage Sling with the gun. It is the right sling for this rifle, this gun should not be bastardized with synthetic slings or cheap leather junk.

Does not come with the original box. It will ship in a hard case at no extra cost.

The Browning 1885 is a fairly rare gun in general and it is very rare in 30-06. The most common high wall is in 45-70 which is traditional but no longer a proper hunting chambering in a very long barrel rifle given the effective range. For a traditionalist hunter, the 30-06 is a real hunting chambering that will outshoot most men. It is considered a highly accurate and true shooting rifle.

If you are just looking for any 1885, you may find something else cheaper. Something with a useless chambering or plain wood. If you do not know what flame and fiddleback are, this is probably not the gun for you. Wood men pay for wood.

This rifle is being sold with everything mentioned as a package, do not ask if I will sell anything individually. There is no scope included.

$2500 with shipping included.
