Season 18, Episode one features a large bore lever action used on Buffalo. Does anyone know what it is??

Looks like a Winchester 1886 that came in a number of cartridges from 45-70 up to 50-110
 
Has very nice wood on it. 50-110 I can believe.I didn't recognise the cartridge when they we loading it.
 
I think they said it was a turnbull in the episode
 
I saw that episode, I think it was in Uganda. One of the buffalo hunts turned into a shit show gun fight.
 
You're taking your 99 right?

Hi @CJW ... That is correct: the 99 (.300 Savage) for PG. I am also taking my .45-70; I have not ruled out another cow buffalo hunt. :E Happy:

Good luck, is your daughter still going with you? Y’all have a wonderful time and can’t wait to see the pictures and write up.
