====Winchester==== In 2005, Winchester re-marketed their legendary [[Winchester Model 1885 Single Shot Rifle|Model 1885 Single Shot Rifle]], under their ''Limited Series'' category. The modern calibers of .17 were offered in a Low-Wall design, and the .243 Winchester and .30-06 Springfield were of the High-Wall design. The most faithful of the reproductions are the ''[[Traditional]] [[Hunter]] [[Limited Series]]'' Model 1885 Single Shots, as they have the original style steel crescent butt plates, and folding steel tang rear sights, with full-length octagon barrels. The Traditional Hunters are chambered in the 19th-century calibers of [[.45-90 Sharps]], [[.45-70 Government]], [[.405 Winchester]], and [[.38-55 Winchester]]. Test firing of some of these Winchesters showed that they are high quality in construction, using the latest technology and modern steel, they are stronger and safer than their 19th-century predecessors, and accuracy from their factory (non-custom) barrels were exceptionally good; especially at {{convert|200|yd|m|abbr=on}}.
