Home Forums Lever Action Central Big Bore Levers 45-90

Another .45-90 but not a lever action:


Beretta 45-90/45/70 DR with 26 inch barrels and scope on QD mounts.
Just recently finished and regulated by Aaron Little. Same smith that regulated my Simson - Suhl .405 double and if anything, he did at least as good a job on this one.
L&R at 45 yards had bullet holes over lapping and at 100 they are side by side! First game taken was an African Blackbuck at 100 yards on a Texas exotic ranch and the result was dramatic - NF 350SS at 2400-2500 fps. Will test with chrony later this fall.
I know it was over kill, but very accurate over kill. I look forward to cooler fall weather and MUCH bigger game this fall.

PS I posted this in this section as it seemed appropriate as there are other 45-90 posts here.
