I can say that your Winchester model 1894 Big Bore(hence the BB before the serial number) was only made from 1983-1989,by Winchester.These rifles did not sell well and that explains the short production run.
I can say that your winchester model 94 big bore(BB) was made between 1983-1989.That is because the XTR suffix was discontinued on the rifle in 1989.If your winchester is in .375 Win caliber then it was made between 1983-1987.
Being that your Winchester big bore has the xtr suffix(pre usra) I can narrow it down to between 1983-1989.I also believe that with that serial number Your,s was made in 1983-1984.
By the serial number letters BB ahead of your serial number,it sounds to me as if you have a Winchester model 1894 XTR big bore.These were chambered for the .307Win,.356Win,and .375Win,cartridges from 1983-1998.The .375 Win cartridge was only available from 1983-1987.Later they added the 444 Marlin to this line.Being that your rifle is marked with the XTR marking,this dates your rifle from 1983-1989.

As far as I know. Daisy never made a model 1899 BB Gun. They did make a 1894 BB Rifle that resembles a Winchester. This may be what you are asking about. In fact they made several different variations of the model 1894.Here is what I suggest: recheck the model number. Then contact Daisy.
