Old Soldier,
The Browning BPCRs are excellent and competitive "out of the box". Quality barrels from Badger Barrels, WI, USA. Made in Japan, NOT China.. Have had several, and they are "minute of angle" with proper BP loads/bullets.


The later Winchesters, or as some call them "Brownchesters"
are/were still made by Mirocou in Japan-the same guns model for model as those made under Brg name. Excellent workmanship. Only thing I don't know for sure is if the Winchester BPCR configuration models still have a Badger Barrel.
The Brg or Win "Traditional Hunter" models are a nice, lighter model, same action, for a hunting rifle. This model comes with long tang, and with a Marbles (type) tang sight mounted. Friend's 38-55 is a tack driver with 335 gr Lyman bullet.

Take a look on Gunbroker under Browning BPCR And you'll find them.
I have a 45-70, 40-65 And a 50-90 and they all shoot well.

Well made and accurate. Believe the Browning BPCR rifles all had Badger barrels, while the later Winchester marked rifles did not. All were assembled/made by Miroku in Japan and are high quality. While externally very similar to the originals, internally they are very different and most find them difficult to work on. Lee Shaver will touch-up the trigger for a reasonable price.

I , too understand the point about the internals.
BUT, pay half again or more for a C Sharps.....
and I bet it will shoot no better than a Brg.

For what it's worth, I've owned and shot several of both. Bwn'g/Win/Miroku and C. Sharps. If BWM breaks your stuck and good luck getting it repaired in a timely fashion. If the C. Sharps, which is a faithful copy of the original breaks (generally the worst that happens is a firing pin) then you can pull the screw, pull out the old and put in a new one in about 5min. If I wasn't shooting the Hepburn these days I would be shooting a C. Sharps (or MVA) 1885. Am also someone who thinks it is important to support our home-grown gun industry.

I agree with most of the previous posters-  the Browning and Winchester 1885 BPCRs are excellent rifles, well made, accurate, and extremely attractive, especially at their price point.  Posters are correct also in their comments regarding the complexity and difficulty in getting service/repairs/parts.
While excellent firearms, we must remember they are in-fact REPLICAs of the original 1885s.
In recent years I've owned one of each of the Browning and Winchester versions, both in 45-70.  Excellent rifles- no doubt about it.
Since I've been playing with schuetzen rifles in recent years, I've become a fan of double set triggers, and there is no way at all to get this added to the Brownchester 1885.  DARN!!!  If someone knows how to get this done, please share that info-
So,  I contacted MVA about a year ago, confirming that they were in fact currently making an exact copy (modern steels) of the 1885.  Yipee!  Put my name down immediately on the order list, and waited patiently.  Got the phone call a few days ago that my action was ready to ship, and it included the bent tangs for a pistol grip as well as double triggers!  Got payment right off to them, and it's on its way to my FFL holder as we speak.
Now it is incumbent upon me to finish this action into the fine target rifle I've lusted after for decades.  No more excuses for me, just make the decision and get it done.
I'll keep shooting my current 1885's, but know they don't hold a candle to the REAL THING-

I will be in agreement, I did/do not like the needlessly complex Brnchester innards. But they do shoot well, and
can be bought for "only in the teens" complete with good sights as compared to a
C.Sharps or MVA based "1885" at up in the mid high "2000s". 
I will defendThe BRnchesters as a Very Good starting point for a person with limited funds.
And, those complex innards are not that hard to disassemble and reassemble-If Needed- what with basic instructions from Lee Shaver or TexasMac.
