    We've probably all read the internet wisdom about 45-70 brass from Hornady being to short. Well the stuff they use to load the leverlution ammo, might very well be. But I decided to take the chance and order some of their component brass. Well folks fear no more that stuff measures 2.1 inches...

    Olde Eynsford

    Have been shooting the Olde Eynsford powder, and it's some interesting stuff. First off it's fast, very fast, and it's very clean burning and so far the fouling is as soft and easy to manage as anything I've ever shot that wasn't a smokeless powder. Velocity with 70 gr charges of 2 and 1.5 f...
