Let's Talk About 45-70 - 05/17/20
Today I ran 13gr of Red Dot with the Speer 300gr FNHP bullet and got excellent accuracy from my 22" Handi Rifle.
Velocity averaged 1255fps 8ft from the muzzle.
Besides the obvious answer stating "it's already 45cal", what are your thoughts about expansion at that speed and if it's too slow, how much speed is needed? I'm not interesed in full or even half throttles loads, just fast enough to work well.
Thanks, Dinny
