If you had access to these (replica) rifles, which would you choose and why?
1. I have a .45-70 so the 120 makes sense to keep it all in the family so to speak.
2. I don't have any .50 cal so 'going big' makes sense.
I don't know (if I ever live in a Free State) if these rifles would count as 'black powder' for hunting season. (Truthfully, if they don't count, then I probably won't take either.).
The rifles are equally 'nice': no significant wear. Both come with a little brass and a mold (again, I'd need to live in a FS...!). Replicas that I've never shot. Of course the mold makes me solidly lean towards the .45 since I have a GBL.
Please don't simply say 'take both': not an option. I either get one/other/neither. I'm not convinced I'm going to buy either, but thought I'd ask my friends who know more than I about these calibers.
Thanks for your thoughts!
