WTB Short 45-70 cases

[Rumrunner]

Woody,
Are you using these in a Marlin or a Ruger No1? If in a No1, you can use regular length brass. I called Hornady on this and that is what I used. I had a few loads left when I sold my No1, and sure enough they would not work in my Guide Gun.

Marlin. I got the load data from them and that is when I realized I needed to trim them.

I have some FTX brass. I will have to count and get back with you. Fom

 

[Woody402]

Thanks. That is what I'm looking for.

 

[Rugerhunter]

I have some of that brass, not sure how many ...

wanna trade for the regular 45/70 brass?

Rugerhunter PM sent.

A Wilson with the 45-70 case holder (new or fired) or a Sinclair- Forster case trimmer will solve your problem. New or used, both are handy to have if you reload. If you have lots to trim, get the power adapter and use a battery drill or screwdriver to ease and speed up the process. :lol:

I think I have a box or two around the bench, before I knew better they got mixed in with the others... They are yours if I find them. These were from Hornady factory loads with the gummy tipped bullets. I'll shoot you a PM when I find them.

Cor thanks. That is what I'm looking for.

I have a nice power trimmer. I was trying to not have to trim my current cases. I could use some more brass anyways and thought I would get some for these bullets and use them just for that.
