[QUOTE="Keith M Sheehan, post: 3040191, member: 89498"] With the powders available right now, my recommendation is N133. I have 7 .45-70's and have hunted with them all over the world with great success. I strictly use 400-405 grain bullets and my all around favorite is the Speer. The load I've settled on is 53.0 grains of N133. This will generate around 1850 fps, depending on barrel length and will put 3 shots into an inch at 100 yds. This load generates close to 38,000 psi, so DON"T use it in anything weaker than a modern M95 Marlin. [/QUOTE]
