Our .45-70 shooters here need this back up gun!

[fortyshooter]

Now I have owned a 7.5 inch BFR revolver in .45-70 and this will be a handful! https://www.americanrifleman.org/articl ... 3375062d86
However with short barrel most of the slow rifle powder will go out the barrel...use Unique loads for it!

Ouch I dont think so for me.I aint as good as I once was. I seen ole Forty with that 45-70 BFR and his world was rockin shootin that.

Had fun with it for some years and sold it for the .45-70 High Wall !

I can't imagine holding onto that Thunder Snub when it fires a 45-70 round .. .. if fired at night, its flash will be blinding ....

After the recoil and it flies back and hits me in the head, guess it won't matter much what happens next...

If I had some "extra" bones in my hand, I might give it a try. Think I'll pass. LOL

[If1Hitu]

Not sure, but, if you need a 'back up' for a 45-70, you may want to check your predicaments better.

Roger that.

Good grief, did you have to use a safety strap?

Or your aim.

Never hunted with 45-70, but
will say the two animals that I shot with my 444 didn't require a backup.
Even though I usually have one. just a double 4 though.

That definitely would give the arthritis in my right thumb a kick in the pants!
