Loooong time muzzleloader & caster and I just got a 45-70 bbl for my Encore. As I begin the trek into the modern world what is the best brass for 45-70? Does you recomend that I buy loaded ammo and then reload the brass or just start with the fixins from the begining? Seems like the loaded ammo route might be $ prohibitive unless that is the only way to get the good brass. Give me an idea of 1st, 2nd, and 3rd choice and what to avoid. Thanks, 10 ga
