Does anyone else wish Nosler still made a 45-70 partition. I would love them to reintroduce a bullet in the 350-380 grain weight. I'm shocked with all the marlins being sold they would discontinue the 45-70 bullet. just my 2 cents
its officially mine- got 4 1/2 boxes of federal 300 hp a box of Remington 300 gn HP and 3/4 of a box of 405 grn remingtons. So I think thats a pretty good deal for $400.00 7 boxes of 45-70 ammo and a almost new guide gun. figure the ammo is almost between 175 to 200 dollars so really I paid $200...
theres been several deer without a scope even at close range in brush- I never would have seen an antler that forks- and close range in brush no time for binoculars. but to each there own, plus the vision in my right eye isn't perfect.
I placed classifieds on several forums looking for a lowpowered 20mm scope. I have been offered a redfield 1-4x20mm for $110 or a Gander mtn 4x 20mm scope for $65. I'm just wondering if I'd be better buying a new 1-3 weaver for $160ish or a vx1 1-4 for $199
I would like a 1-3, 1-4 or 1.5-5 or fixed 2.5 or 4 power scope. I want the none belled front. I like the looks of the straight tube on the guide guns. I'm in no hurry to buy, so if you see this ad and have a good scope laying around please let me know. Price does matter but I want quality. I...
I would love a leupold 1.5-5 on it. just don't have the change right now. I might look for a used leupold. I love the german post cross hairs. I have a leupold vx2 2-7 post #2 on my 35 whelen. a leupold vx2 4-12 #4 on my 264 wm. and an older4x leupold post&crosshair on my contender 45-70.

well its a keeper, Shot it yesterday two different handloads that shoot great in my contender 370 cast gc bullet w/ 5744 and 405 rem cl w/ re7. both shot to point of aim at 50 yards. eight shots in about a 3inch group not bad for a gun I had never fired before and with open sites. to top it off...
I like the looks of the 1-4 type 20mm on guide guns, I was thinking weaver 1-3x, nikon 1-4, or maybe looking for a used leupold. any other suggestions what do you guys think would be good.
so 400 with a couple boxes of ammo is a good price. especially since I already reload for it since I have a contender carbine and a 1884 trapdoor cadet model in 45-70
