The .50-110 WCF / 13x61mmR (also known as the .50-100-450 WCF , with different loadings) in modern 1886 Winchesters with modern steel barrels is the most powerful lever-action cartridge, with up to 6,000 foot-pounds (8,100 J) of energy.
Production of Winchester Model 1886 rifles chambered in this cartridge ceased in 1910 due to lack of demand, [3] and most commercial production of the cartridge itself ceased in the 1930s. New production loaded cartridges and unloaded brass cases are rare and are often created using reformed .45-70 brass.
