Which one 20 ga. tracker or 45-70
« on: November 16, 2004, 11:31:26 AM »
Since I might have a real good place now to hunt now, I have a problem. Well not a problem. I am wondering which I should bloody first. I love this tracker I have, but I want to see the reaction when the 300 gr. corelok hits within 50 yds. I've heard stories you guys tell about the reaction from the 45-70. I like the immediate drop from a shot.  :mrgreen:  Which would you use first? :roll:  Isn't this something , which HR/NEF to use first. :biggun:

45-70 for sure.  I like that feeling of stepping back in time to when our ancestors lived off the land and always had their trusty rifle at hand. Even if we use modern smokeless powder in our loads today their is just so much history and mystique in the old black powder cartridges.  I love to imagine what life must have been like. A lot harder in some respects I'm sure but also a lot less complicated.

I'll probably will take the 45-70. Got to get the tracker in somewhere at some point this season though.
