Found a new Ruger made Marlin at a LGS. Somehow this 45-70 followed me home. First 45-70 for me. I’ve only loaded cast for 30-30, 44 Mag, and 30-06. Will be looking for some good load data. Did buy a box of j-words to shoot but plan to only use cast afterwards. Put my scope down the barrel…looks really good. Better than my Remlin 44 mag for sure! All the edges are smooth at the lever and loading gate seems good. I’ll know better tomorrow after I shoot a few. Any type of mold I should be looking for? Thinking of something in the 350gr range but would like to know what’ll work best.
