Op, sounds like you don't really want this rifle. I would sell that POS ......... to me ! I've always wanted one. It's next on my list. Nice find !

Thanks! Yeah it was always on my "one of these days" list. Now it's becoming one of my favorite guns! Lol

Weill , I picked up a Henry instead. Love it ! Just need to start loading for it. This is a fun rifle and round ! Ready for deer season. :-)

I love my 45-70 in the thick stuff. You will not be disappointed with the performance of the 45-70 round!

They're fun at long ranges too! Has to be the funnest lobbing round out there.

By the way I meant to say all of the Lee mold bullets shoot well out of all my 45-70s so if you're looking to get into casting give them a try.

I blasted the surface to create a matte gray finish and added Williams ring & post sights.
Haven't had the opportunity to take deer with it, but it's great for punching holes in stumps.
