I'm going to be in need of a box of gas checks for the 45-70. I've looked at Hornday & Lyman. Both only have .451 sized checks.
Who makes a G/C for the 45-70?

Mine came from Lyman, but I bought them about 40 years ago.

We used to give 9mm's to the women and kids. Now that everybody is running 9mm's as their primary, maybe we need to give the women and kids .32's so we can keep feeling manly.-Bigslug
