Thanks.

montana outfitters said:I had a #3 in 45-70...........planned to use it as a guiding rifle during big game season but soon learned what happens when you try for 1800 fps with 405 gr Remingtons in a 6 pound rifle..............wow........it kills on BOTH ends and soon resolved to find a #1 in 375 H&H and convert this into a 22BR....looks cool,packs light but god have mercy on the guy that tried to load this up to what a 45-70
can comfortably do in a #1-3 action..................
