Site seems to be OK. Load issue should be resolved now.
Hi!
Hi!
New member here from sunny Florida. Recently purchased my lever gun ever. Hrnry HO10 in 45-70, intended for use on hogs in close quarters here in the palmetto scrub. Go big or go home! Lol i also reload rifle and pistol.. reloading and casting makes shooting the 45-70 much more affordable for sure.
Don't listen to people that say you don't need more guns and ammo. No one needs that kind of negativity in their lives!!

Re: Hi!
JEBar, so far i like 14 grains of trail boss behind a 350 hard cast for the range. For the hogs i load 300 gr barnes TSX HPs on top of XBR. Thumps me and the piggies pretty hard!

Re: Hi!
as to the thumping on both ends, of that I have no doubt ..
.. for our 45-70 I've settled on 300 gr Nosler Ballistic Silvertip bullets pushed by IMR 4198 .... for hunting 51.5 gr .... 44 gr for all range/target use .... the 44 gr load has a fairly flat trajectory out to 100 yards and is actually a pleasure to shoot-
