Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

much the same with ours .... I haven't found any reason to slug it because, so far, it has done well with every type and grain bullets we have run through it .... my preference is for using Nosler's 300 gr ballistic silvertips .... it does well with lead bullets but I favor jacketed ones .... I'm still early in the process of working up loads using 400 and 500 grain bullets .... do you already own a Henry 45-70 .... if so, which model .. :?: .. if not, which model are you considering .. :?:
