I've been shooting a No. 45-70 for 21 years. I use 350 gr. Hornady and 3031 powder. Ihave taken a number of whitetails with it all one shot kills and don't have to trail them very far. It is scoped with an old Redfield 1.5-5 scope, very accurate rifle. I also have 3 other 45-70s. My so called brush gun is a Bikaal 45-70 SxS, easy to carry and lighter than my No. 1.
