My new hog gun is a left hand CZ 527 rifle in .223 caliber. It has a Leupold FXIII 6x42 scope that is super in the dark.

Is that one of those Leupold night vision scopes?

still no answer to my question. can the 45/70 be rechamberd to 450 marlin?

[DANTHEHUNTER]

Why would you want to? It will do all that the .450 will and if reloaded give it some more.I dont think it can be rechambered if you just have to do it.I really looked hard at the.450 before I bought my 45/70 's(i have two of them) But I just couldnt see its advantage at the time.

[ncpreacherboy1]

i don't reload. the 450 marlin has better factory ammo ballistics. i like the new nef/h&r break action with the thumbhole stock in 45-70. therefore that is why i was thinking get the 45-70 and have rechambered to 450 marlin.

[DANTHEHUNTER]

Thats what I mean with bullalo bore or garrett rounds they match the .450

[ncpreacherboy1]

i prefer the hornady leverevolution for the 450 or the 45-70

[DANTHEHUNTER]

I dont know much about that ammo but I will take a look at it.
