Best price on a 45-70 BC
« on: February 21, 2005, 09:27:49 AM »
What will be an average price for a new NEF/H&R 45-70 BC?
I have a price of 380.00 for a new one. Is that to much; about the selling price?
What do you guys think about.

Thank you guys for all your help.
I learned a lot from you and I can't wait to get my hand on a NEF 45-70.

I'll be using:
 - black powder
 - Lee dies (I have a Lee Turret)
 - lead bullets 405 and up
 - try to use factory front and rear sights. Will change later for long distance (over 300)
 - will buy the Lee mold 459-500-3R
    In RE to this mold. Can I use plumber lead? Do I have to mix it with     something else?

Thanks and good shooting to you all.

Check out Junior Doughty's page, he's got cast bullet info and specifically, an article on the 45-70 HandiRifle and shooting blackpowder and cast bullets.
