Are we mixing timelines? The 30-06 was patented in 1906 and was never, ever jacked into a chamber of a lever-action (i believe). The .44 was useful in that it could be used in both the revolver and the Winchester.
I believe the article spans the whole history. It's on a summary page with photos of some actual weapons carried by the Rangers. I actually thought about leaving that part out because I knew someone would notice that more than the parts I highlighted.
