45/70 is just ridiculous. And fun. I’m glad I owned and loaded for one.

Literally pole axes animals. Subs gets for the kids with serous power and .5moa. Full power rounds enough for buffalo.

Cheers. For my Begara 45/70 I Cooked up a 400gr Speer jacketed load with trail boss.

1000fps , gentle on the shoulder and sub minute groups.
Nice contrast to my 2200fps load.....

I’m looking for any advice on subsonic 400gr jacketed rounds. I’ve got trail boss but most info is based on lead projectiles.

Hi I have a 1-6. I recommend a 1-4 or 1-6 with a nice quick reticle or illumination even better. Good for close up shot gun style but also for 200m if the opportunity presents.

Mine is 18in long. And DPT got the supressor to within 1mm of the foreend. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180705/af1d280455e0c2a903e7101ecfa6ef50.jpg

Got any deets?

I reckon I'll get there. It's inevitable. I reload -45/70 but Id rather not roll my own projectiles as I've already hot 5 other calibres I reload for.
Can one purhase or acquire good lead...

I did exactly the same. Topped off with a vortex 1-6 viper gen2. Nice but kinda heavy.
Recoil with 325ftx @ 2300 ahh erm , interesting.....
