Raylan 5,654 Posted December 16, 2020 Author Share Posted December 16, 2020 It's in 45 70, lucky that way I can afford to feed it. Haven't named it, got a feeling though it's named Bruce.............as in my shoulder feels real "bruced." 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Only if you have to feed it, and want the easiest availability of ammo and don't want to handload an odd-cartridge. OTOH, if you like to develop odd loads, anything but the .50 caliber can be formed from .45-70 brass. For the .50's you need .348 brass. But, he's in good shape with a .45-70! Stay well and safe, Pards! Happy Holidays! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
