Cimarron 1886 AS188645-70PG | .45-70 | 26in | 8rd

The Cimarron 1886 AS188645-70PG is a classic-style lever-action rifle chambered in .45-70 Government with a 26-inch barrel, deluxe checkered walnut pistol-grip stock, and case-colored hardware. Its design follows the late 19th-century big-game repeater tradition but is built for modern sporting use. For optics, a mid-power hunting scope such as a Leupold VX-Freedom 3-9×40 (priced well under $1,000) or a comparable 3–9x scope provides a useful balance of field of view and magnification for typical ranges with this cartridge.

Applications: big-game hunting at moderate ranges and historical/heritage shooting or collecting where period-appropriate handling and appearance matter.
