Thread: 45-70

marlin all the way!
i have many lever guns. the 45/70 probabaly gets the most use.
i have hunted everything including buffalo with them.
it is so versatile, you can load from super mild that a 12yo can shoot, to super wild that will bring water to any tough guys eyes.
they are a bit like a rainbow in terms of trajectory but that is cool it is just a case of being realistic with the range that you are shooting
at the moment, i have my guide gun setup as a bush gun, i have fitted a peep sight to it and i am more than happy with the accuracy of the rifle, for its purpose.
keep an eye out for a marlin in good nic, they come along every now and then, you wont be disapointed.
i call mine "the one hit wonder" it never needs a follow up.
