45/70 range
« on: November 08, 2011, 12:49:31 PM »
What range have you guys seen out of a 45/70 16" barrel with a brake, using 300 grain factory loads. Just curious as what to expect at the range. Thanks

This is a super 100 yard gun.  I have not shot it past that but I'm sure it would be a 150 yard weapon if you know the drop.  I shoot the 14 inch with a break and the 300 grain factory loads.  Shot straight through a doe front to back at 70 yards.  This is now my favorite deer hand gun ;D
 
Good luck,
