I have been experimenting with powder coating bullets and decided to try a few gould bullets i had kicking around for the 45-70, found they shot great with 50grs of 3031 in my old Marlin. Headed out for a walk and found a fresh scrape and some decent tracks so started after him, finally got up with him around noontime and got a brief opportunity for a shot so took it. Deer took off and I saw steam going out the side so knew it was a good shot.
