46 WINCHESTER CENTER FIRE

The 46 Winchester Center Fire is a rare experimental cartridge by Winchester dating from 1912 for a Model 1886 rifle that was never marketed. There was a reference to the 46 WCF in IAA Journal #380 Nov/Dec ’94 which quoted a Gun Report article from Feb. 1956 p.9. This specimen is the final version with the protected primer and FMJ bullet with copper express tube.
