45-70 PMC 350 grain ammo

[bambis nightmare]

First of all, do you guys know the pressure of this bullet and is it OK for a handi?  If so, has PMC discontinued this ammo?  If not, where could I get it assuming its safe in a handi?

Thanks!

The word is that pmc quit making ammo.
There is still a lot in stores but I wouldn't get to used to it.

PMC quit making it long before they went out of business last year, if you find some, better buy it, or better yet, find something that is still available that will work for ya, the list below is all factory ammo available in Dec 2003 and their price then.
