Belt Fed Posted May 24, 2019 Report Share Posted May 24, 2019 Those are beautiful guns. you ever see the movie Quigly from down under? If not you should watch it. He's a long range shooter using one of those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetdoc Posted May 25, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2019 Yep, seen it more than once. My rifle is similar; I had it chambered in 45-70 without all the bells and whistles of the movie replica. Its a tack driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, sir, I reload my 45-70s. I did consider the 45-100 and the 45-110 before placing my order. 45-100 cases can be bought but are expensive, Starline has them. As for 45-110, they're like the holy grail, good luck in finding them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
