Picture of the bolt face and the top and bottom of the bolt.

I'll post a bolt face pic this evening when I have better light. The barrel length measured from the points in the picture is 19.5".

Barrel has no marking on it other than "45-70" so I don't know what the twist is. It shot 300 - 405 grain cast bullets just fine for me. I put the scope mounts on it afterward but have not had a...

Bump with a price drop to $450.

Yes, you read that right. This is a 98 Mauser-Werke action that was sporterized into a 45-70 that holds 3 rounds in the magazine.

I am asking $450 for it shipped to your FFL. You must make sure...

I use 20grn of 4227 with a 255grn RNFP for all my 45 Colt loads. I do however shoot this in a Ruger Blackhawk which can handle Ruger only loads. I don't know if that is a Ruger only load or not but...

The bullet you showed is my all time favorite plane base bullet for 45 Colt. I literally shoot thousands of them a year. They work great from hard cast to soft cast and they work in my lever actions...

what are your bullets from that mold sizing at out of the mold? My bfr doesn't like anything under .459

What flounderman said is how I cut it off the bone. Then I grind it all, wrap it in packages and toss it in the freezer for three months which will kill all but one strain of trichinosis. Then I take...

If you put the meat in a container of water and allow it to freeze into a small block and then put the frozen block into a larger container of water and freeze that, and then do it one last time(3...

Just got another 130+ pounds of COWW from Jetsfan-24. Fast, ultra-reliable, clean lead at a good price. Definitely the best person I have ever dealt with to get COWW lead from.

Sweet! Was that load from published data or just worked up from a lesser load?

I love reading your small game handgun posts. Well done!

Definitely post back what happens when you try the next loads with it. I'd like to see where 3031 tightens up at for you, because even though my groups with it at 38.5 are good, I'm never opposed to...

Seems like yours doesn't like that load as much as mine does then, every gun is different for sure. You were using same alloy, mold, lube, gas check etc? or just a 405grn cast bullet over 38.5grn of...

I use air cooled 50/50 == 50% COWW / 50% pure lead for all my hunting bullets in any given caliber. I might target shoot with a different alloy sometimes but that is what I hunt with and it has never...

Well done!

I got my "B" tag(Antlerless whitetail) filled this year with the 45-70 BFR as well. I used a 50/50 405grn bullet going 1250fps and hit it in the chest at 50 yards with a Burris 4x as...

If it's just me eating or I am smoking them I leave them in. When you smoke pike the Y bones can easily be pulled out with no meat on them when you are eating it. That's my favorite way to eat pike....

I bone them and grind it but we get 6 - 8 deer per year (2 for each person) in my family between myself, my son, my GF and her kid. The original recipe here sounds good and so does the one the other...

Cool. I have been thinking about trying to get over for a week for those hunts but I'm not sure if I will be able to swing it with ice fishing season already upon us.

Are you guys going to do the shoulder hunts this winter to try and get her a cow elk?

Man I have been hunting white tail for 28 years now and I get a lot of deer but even I have days like that.

Sometimes you go to your best areas and they just aren't there or it's too crunchy and...

I use a lyman 4500 lube sizer set to only go down as far as the first groove to set the gas check and lube one groove for all the bullets I am going to do that way. Then I back off the pressure on it...
