Home Forums Hunting & Shooting BPCR 45/70 to 45/100 rechamber

I've had 45's from the 2.1 to the 3.25 case and my experience has been that once a fella goes longer than the 45-2.4, (45-90 case) fouling control becomes more difficult and important. It is certain the fouling can be controlled but maybe I'm lazy and didn't like doing it. My thought is try the 45-2.4 case. I can get 80-85 grs. of 2F in it and under a 480 gr. bullet is plenty for any game on the NA continent. I have no doubt an accurate target load could also be worked up but for that work I use my 40-2.5 rifle. Even in a 10 1/2 lb. rifle sitting behind a long string from my 45-90 would almost cease to be fun.
