  If it is an old gun then it must be chambered 38-40. Would have been made prior to 1906, made with both round and octagon barrel.Other Cal for the were 25-20, 32-20, and 44-40.

  According to my references,a 60,000 s/n range in "38" makes this rifle an 1889 (s/n25000-100000). The 1894 had a s/n range of from 107,678 to 355,245.
