If it was the Annie Oakley we all know and love, she was a shooting star who could have any rifle in any chamber she wanted.

John Martz built "baby" Lugers in .45 ACP, so I'm sure somebody could have stretched a Model 1892 or similar to handle a .25-20 SS.  But I'd be floored if somebody actually did.  Even for Qakley.

The Winchester pump was a 22 LR and what she used to light matches with. 
In regards to Winchester lever action it was a 25-20SS and the model is not what I am sure of.

They may have a lever, but there isn't any 'short loading tube'.

Victorian women also enjoyed rifle shooting. Her husband bought a new rifle and she is showing what a great sport she is for him not buying her a new rifle also. She is giving him a 15 second running start before she shows him how accurate his new rifle is.
