What kind of ammo in 45-70

Postby duckkiller » Sun Nov 11, 2012 6:54 am

Ive been shooting Hornady 300 Grain, but cant find it anymore. We have one of the best gun shops I have ever been in over here called Marks Outdoors, and they say they cant find it anymore. All they have now is Remington Core Lok in 405 grain and then the Hornady in 250 grain. What are you guys shooting?

Marks is a great outdoor store.

Shoot hornady's leverevolution.

I use the 325 grain Hornady Leverevolution, in my NEF 45-70, and at 100 yards it will put 3 shots in one big hole. Kills on both ends though... :lol:

Im not a fan of Remington Core Lok at all, infact I shoot Hornady out of every gun I own all the way dow to my carry guns. Just having trouble finding them in 45-70 this year for some reason. Im stock pilling as much ammo as I can for every gun I own because of the way the prices have jumped. GOne up over $20 a box for 280 loads this year compared to last year
