[QUOTE="Dean2, post: 2676677, member: 26077"] Unless you live in a no lead zone, the 350 grain Hornady round nose is far and away the best bullet choice for the 45-70. I have shot everything from grouse to moose and bears with that bullet. Exceptional performer at even 1500 fps. It goes clean through bears length wise at that speed and opens up great. I shot a ton of game, especially bears with that bullet. You can push them a lot faster, I have tried it, but all that does is kick the snot out of the shooter, they don't kill any better. Five fairly fast shots using a rolled blanket for a rest from a JM Marlin prior to Magna_Porting it.
