[QUOTE="Slack One, post: 906048, member: 2270"] If you reload, the .45-70 is a better choice, IMHO. Mild pressure, easy to do cast bullets if you're into that, and easy to load up or down as you please. Loading them with the attitude that they're a repeating muzzle loader can give you some great performance on deer, without the meat loss you get from some of the rapid-expanding bullets. And as mentioned earlier...you know...T-rex. I don't reload, so I have my boring ol' .30-30 336. [/QUOTE]
