45-70 is not a big boy. You just showed me that you're not someone whose opinion or comments have much relevancy.
And this shows how much you know. I'm not talking whimpy 45-70 trapdoor loads. You can load some of today's rifles chambered in .45-70 up to almost .458 Win equivalency.
You give me a .45-70 like a Ruger #1 and the right bullets and I'll hunt anything in this world without of being under gunned.
