I own the Buffalo Classic 45/70 and love it. The last time I shot I used the Buffalo Bore 405 gr. J.F.N. (2000 fps / M.E. 3597 ft. lbs.) out to 300 yards because that was all the distance I had to shoot. I started out traditional with a Harrington and Wesson rear sight, but changed to a Leupold VXIII 2.6x8x36 scope for hunting. I had my rifle refinished by Robar with a Roguard barrel and NP3 receiver. I am looking to get a buffalo engraved on the side after hunting season.

This rifle is a shooter. The recoil is more of a push than a slam and not as bad as the leverguns in my opinion. It is one of my favorite rifles. MV out!
