I had the 20” version. It was quite accurate and fed everything I put through it. Some folks say that the 1894 wasn’t designed for pistol cartridges and yes the action is long but Winchester seemed to have sorted it out. Others say that the vestigial rim on the .45 Colt isn’t good in a levergun but the only real jam I had was when I let my teenage son carry it deer hunting. He somehow managed to get the first round in the magazine lodged between the bolt and lifter. More of a bored teenager sitting on a stump problem than a design flaw.
The only reasons I got rid of it were I’d quit shooting CASS and I have several .44 Mags. It’s possible for bored teenagers to load a .44 into a .45 and we don’t want that to happen.
Now that they’re grown up and not in my house I’d love to find a Trapper.
