Is the Black Hills Cowboy Action Ammunition 32-20 WCF Product #: 146138, the proper ammo for a Winchester Model 1873 .32 WCF Lever Action Rifle c. 1898?
yes it is "The .32-20 Winchester, also known as .32 WCF (Winchester center fire), was the first small-game lever-action cartridge that Winchester produced. It was initially introduced as a black-powder cartridge in 1882 for small-game, varmint hunting, and deer. Colt produced a single-action revolver chambered for this cartridge a few years later.["

HSM Cowboy Action 32-20 Winchester 115 GR RNFP 50 Bx/ 20 Cs
Charlie, yes Sir. he .32-20 Winchester is also known as .32 WCF (Winchester center fire). The name .32-20 refers to the 32 caliber bullet of .312-inch-diameter (7.9 mm). This cartridge was sometimes used for deer hunting in the past, and William Lyman, the designer of rifle sights, said of it: "For large game, of course, a .32-20 W.C.F. cartridge is rather small, but it comes nearer to being an all-around cartridge in my opinion than any other. It has a good reputation for accuracy in rifles as well as the few handguns that have been chambered for it.
