I think a .50-70 with a 26” standard 1/2 round barrel in a Saddle Rifle with the 36 twist would make a hell of a Deer thumper for hunting in the swamps of Florida. I went .50-90 first because I have bigger plans for it I hope plus the nostalgia and damn it your postings!
Sure, 475grs for deer and pigs at 200 yards or less in a 50-70 would be fun, but same bullet in a 50-90, no way for me, I know they killed buffalo with em, but I wont, there are a few Men here that can tell us all firsthand what 50 cal and 700-800 grains will/have done in another world and time.
