[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 217044, member: 10"] Let me rephrase my comment, many of the loads I have seen in the Ruger #1s are 60K or more. Modern 45-70 brass is not overly thin. Thats kind of a wives tale. Just like those that say the 45 Colt brass can not take high pressure, simply not true, its made to the same standards and any modern brass. I am working with some Starline 45-70 brass right now that is very good brass. I am sure you would also agree a 300 gr bullet, especially jacketed, at 2000 fps would not be a good big game choice compared to a 440 gr hard cast loaded to 1500-1700 fps. [/QUOTE]
