Default RE: 45-70 Gov Best Rifle Choice

I have to agree with HEAD0001. There is no bad 45-70. This is one caliber which even shines in the NEF rifles. I have owned the Buffalo Classic 32 inch and several 22 inch Handi rifles. I have had a couple of the Sharps versions and a couple Rugers. Also several Marlin lever guns. I like it the single shots best because it just increases the they versatility of load possibilities. The Ruger No l offers almost unlimited opportunities. I have shot everything from rattle snakes to big bears with this caliber. Buffalo too.
