Re: One for TAM and Andy C and the .45-70
The ported barrel model was only available a couple of years. You are right about the blast. I have been next to shooters with them and it's acoustically and physically uncomfortable. I just move or quit if no other bench is available.

It's apparent that idiot has never been around livestock! "Ok, Bubba just run at him from the side! Let me hold your beer." - Fri Aug 17, 2018 8:30 am

Good day fellow 45-70 owners , I am new to the forum . Thought I would share my gun and my use for my gun in Africa. I live and hunt in Southern Africa and love my 45-70, although I own a lot if big calibers like 375 ’s, 416, and 500NE, the 45-70 is my favourite. I use it for back-up on Leopard, Lion, and buffalo, even have used it on Elephant and believe me it pounded it to the Ground. I use a few different Loads ranging from 343gr peregrine softs and solids @ 2100ft/s, 400gr cutting edge solids@ 1850ft/s, hard cast Lead 400gr @1950 and hard cast Lead 500gr @ 1600ft/s. It is a lovely gun to shoot and it's Quick and nimble.
