[QUOTE="idaho elk hunter, post: 844415, member: 68226"] The name of this site is LONG range hunting...So dur to that the 338 caliber with its attributes is definitely the way to go. Once that is said if you reload the 45-70 its one deadly SOB. With a 400 gr Barnes original and h4195 loaded on a freebored barrel it can match if not surpass the 458 win mag. If you rebarrel with a Lothar Walther barrel which is made from a harder steel you can even go to the 458 Lott power. I know there are sever doubters on here so if you call 2 gunsmiths that come to mind they can help with a built 45-70 to compare to the 300 win. Jim Brockman in Gooding Idaho and M.L. Phearson. Google them and they can give you a true comparison and educate you on the power of a 45-70. [/QUOTE]
