The Winchester Model 95 would be celebrating its quasquicentennial, 125 years since its introduction in 1895. The greatest selling point of the Model 95 was that it was chambered for all of the more popular high-power cartridges of the period, starting with the .30 U.S. (.30-40 Krag)..
Of the first cartridges introduced in the Model 95, two were black-powder numbers, the .40-72 and .38-72 WCFs, along with the smokeless .30 U.S. (aka .30-40). The .303 British was added in 1898, the .35 in 1903 and the .405 WCF in 1904. The .30-03 and .30-06 Springfields were added in 1905 and 1908, respectively. The Russian order for 293,818 7.64x54 muskets took two years to fill in 1916/17.
Since it's original production run the Model 95 has been reintroduced in the second generation Browning and Winchester (USRAC) editions in .270 WCF, .30-06, .30 U.S. and .405 WCF.
