Taylors and Company 1886 Ridge Runner TD | .45-70 | 18.5″ | 220090

The Taylors and Company 1886 Ridge Runner is a take-down lever-action rifle chambered in .45-70 Government with a half-octagon barrel and a matte chrome finish. This right-hand, full-size take-down model pairs a soft-touch black stock with a larger lever loop and features an adjustable Skinner peep rear sight and a fiber-optic front. For a practical optic under $1,000 that suits close-to-moderate range hunting and traditional lever-action use, consider a 3-9×40 rifle scope such as the Vortex Diamondback 3-9×40.

Applications: big-game hunting at close to moderate ranges, and recreational or heritage lever-action shooting.
