The Taylors & Company 1873 .357 Mag lever action rifle brings classic Western carbine handling to a practical modern cartridge. This Model 200F pairs the timeless appeal of an octagonal barrel and case-hardened frame with the versatility of .357 Magnum—a round that performs equally well in hunting, sport shooting, and defensive scenarios. At 20 inches, the barrel strikes a balance between velocity and maneuverability, while the overall length of 38.87 inches keeps the rifle nimble in brush or from horseback. Weighing just 7.59 lbs, it's light enough for all-day carry yet substantial enough to shoot smoothly.
Built on the proven 1873 platform, this rifle handles like a partner who knows the job. The walnut straight stock feels right in your hands whether you're working a lever or settling into a shooting position, and the classic buckhorn rear and blade front sights are more than adequate for the distances where .357 Magnum shines. The case-hardened frame and blue finish deliver that authentic Winchester-era look without sacrificing durability. The 10-round capacity gives you enough on tap for hunting, competition, or trail work without becoming unwieldy.
Shooters drawn to lever guns—whether for hunting medium game, plinking, or the pure satisfaction of working a quality mechanism—will find the 1873 platform intuitive and reliable. The .357 Magnum cartridge opens doors: load light for small game and varmints, or push full-power loads for deer-sized game. Recoil is manageable, accuracy is solid, and ammunition is readily available. This is a rifle that rewards good shooting and respects tradition without apology.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I hunt deer with a .357 Magnum lever action rifle?
Yes. The .357 Magnum is effective on deer-sized game at reasonable hunting distances, especially with quality full-power ammunition. Many hunters favor lever guns in this caliber for woods hunting where shots are typically under 100 yards.
What's the difference between this rifle and a .44 Magnum 1873?
The .357 Magnum produces less recoil and lighter ammunition, making it friendlier for extended shooting and easier to carry. The trade-off is slightly less energy downrange; either round is effective within appropriate hunting and shooting ranges.
Does this rifle come with a scope or mount?
This model ships with iron sights—buckhorn rear and blade front. If you want to add an optic, verify compatibility with the rifle's receiver before purchasing a mount.
Is the 20-inch barrel short enough for hunting from horseback or in tight cover?
At 38.87 inches overall, the 1873 is one of the shorter lever guns and handles excellently in brush, timber, or from a saddle. It's designed for the kind of shooting where quick handling matters more than extended range.
