[QUOTE="RT2506, post: 1450759, member: 10178"] First off the original 45-70 was actually a sub sonic round. 500 grs of lead bullet pushed to just under 1200 fps with black powder. I shoot basically the same load in my Sharps 1874 copy. That big ol bullet don't have to be moving too fast to shoot clean through most any critter in North America out to 1000 yards and you can eat right up to the bullet hole as the old buff hunters used to say. You have to know exactly what the yardage is but with a good rifle and load these rifles are mind blowing accurate even at 1000 yards shooting with a Vernier open sight. [/QUOTE]
