Sheepdog mentioned practice and getting intimately familiar with the gun. A very astute piece of advice. How many have this image when they...
There are no visible marks except for on the barrel by the rear site dovetail which says 45-70 CREEDMORE - and I've been told that it is...
Again - thanks to everyone. I will see if the gunshop will let me pull the forarm (stock) and if I purchase it I will post it and a range report.
The biggest advantage to me for a 300 mag versus 338 Lapua is price. Locally, 338 loaded ammo is in the same ballpark as 50 bmg. Brass is very...
When did this happen? It seems very quiet and unheralded to me.
Another question on this - what are thoughts on rechambering for 45-100 or 45-110?
my experience - I bought two 45-70s - the 1895 Cowboy and the 1895 guide gun. Both of these were bought in the 2000s, I waited about 6months...
Did Remington (in the original rolling block era) make any 45-70s (creedmoor or not)?
Thanks to all who took the time to respond. If Numrich sold 45-70 barrels, then this might be such a gun.
I am looking at a Rollingblock in 45-70. It is on consignment. The gun is supposed to be restocked Remington Rolling BLock. The...
If you are putting pistol bullets into plastic sabots for white tail deer, I would just as soon cast them from pure lead. I wouldn't worry about...
I think this post needs some clarification - 45LC can be shot in a 454 casull 45LC and 454 casull can, to my knowledge be shot in the 460 smith...

1. liked the 2nd part of it best. Part 1 was kinda slow. 2. On Pawn Stars, someone came into the shop with a 1892 Winchester they said was...
I had shot Unique plinking loads in 44 mag for years, but 7.5 grains seems light. I found that I like Trail Boss for mild loads in 44mag and...
Tried the MP300 after the article in Handloader. 454 Casull loads in a Super RedHawk 9" barrel. I don't have a chronograph, but the loads...
also, if you are interested in target/plinking, the Rainier plated bullets are a good value.
with that short of a barrel, you may want to try 300 grain bullets/less powder versus 240 grain bullets/more powder.
the only way I'd consider a .357 lever gun over a 30-30 is if I really needed a long gun to be a companion piece to a handgun. Otherwise, I'd...
As shown in tremors, the 460 Weatherby is enough for anything on the planet.......just don't expect your truck to pull it.....
