Cimarron 1866 Yellowboy | .44-40 Win | 16 in Barrel

The Cimarron 1866 Yellowboy is a lever-action replica styled after post-Civil War designs chambered in .44-40 Winchester with a 16-inch barrel. It pairs period-correct aesthetics—brass-lite receiver, blued metal and walnut furniture—with a practical 10-round tubular magazine and factory sights. A low-magnification variable optic such as a Vortex Crossfire II 2-7×32 will mount well for courses of fire and low-to-moderate distance shooting while keeping cost well under $1,000. Suitable applications include cowboy action competition and recreational/historical shooting.
