Uberti 1885 High-Wall Big Game Rifle For This Season

Uberti logoUberti announces the launch of its new 1885 High Wall Big Game single-shot rifle, which brings a number of firsts to the company’s rich history. In the past, a number of states limited deer and other big-game hunters to shotguns only during firearms hunting seasons. Now, a growing list of formerly shotgun-only states are approving the use of straight-walled rifle cartridges for big game hunting, opening up a host of new possibilities for sportsmen and women. Chambered in .45/70, the Uberti 1885 High Wall Big Game is poised to enter the market with a winning combination of 19th-century tradition and 21st-century functionality.
