should have said 45-70. just shot them and this is the result 1785 fps shot at a 6 inch plate gong at 150 yards first shot blew it off the stand. second shot blew it off the stand. third shot blew it off the stand. too cold to walk out there again. ready for T REX with this one. that was starting load from Lyman Cast manual and it is as high as i am going. recoil out of the 9.5 lb mauser was ok but don't want more. will shoot for accuracy closer and later. i hear a cup of coffee calling me.
the consolidation of the states into one vast republic, sure to be aggressive abroad and despotic at home, will be the certain precursor of that ruin which has overwhelmed all those that have preceded. Robert E Lee ~Molɔ̀ːn Labé Skýla~
