Lee, I posed that question because theelk load I shoot from my inlines is a .458 Nosler Protected Point over 100 grains of t7-2f loose. i consider this to be a stout load, of course I could increase the powder charge even further but have not found it necessary.
I am not sure of the old 45-70 bp ballistics and I know the new ones, the modern 45-70 is quite hot.
With this particular ML load I am shooting the average MV is 1750 with MFPE 2040. @ 100 Vel. 1463 FPE 1426.Iknow I am stuck on the Nosler but I am really confident in theirability to penetrate - it does not blow up.
Ok what is the consencious will this load do the job on a hog?
