[QUOTE="1shott, post: 3668677, member: 29"] Finally got around to shooting the Henry 45-70 single shot today. first issue was findings scope for it. I had a bushnell engage on it and when the rings were tightend down the hammer would hit the adjustment ring on the scope. so I mounted this Leupold 1-4 on it. I have high rings on it at the moment. Would have needed xtra high for the bushnell scope to work. A buddy has a 100 yard range at his place and let me come out today to sight in took just over half a box of ammo to sight in But once I got it dialed in I was in the center ring at 100 yards with about a 1-1/2 inch group. I am shooting federal fusion 300gr recoil is mild. A lot less than I was expecting. It’s more like a strong 12ga. Just a good push not a kick like I was expecting. anyway it’s sighted in. I am happy with the results. Might try to tighten the group up a little when I have more time but honestly I think it’s pretty good. [/QUOTE]
