Nice video, beautiful furniture. I might be tempted to open up the notches or switch to a peep style rear like the Skinner. Too bad you couldn't wring it out at two or three hundred yards. I would have liked to see what it could have done. Maybe another video later.

But that would mean you would have to shoot another twenty or fifty rounds of 45-70.

Nice video Howard. The Bryan Family does a nice job building those guns. I have a Long Range Express in 45-100 I have used in BPCR competition and had a great time while still doing it. Hows the shoulder feel

I would love to, but unfortunately I have to give this one back to its owner. Unless, I um, "lose" it!

The shoulder wasn't bad. The day after I recorded this video it was just sore enough to let me know I was shooting a "manly" rifle!
