Remember the 45/70???

Quite a few buffalo were killed with that gun...I believe the bullet weighed 405grs but even at that 70grs is plenty for deer...Plenty of traditional guys use that in their .50 caliber round ball guns...Black powder guns kill with heavy bullets and slow velocities...

I wouldn't bump it up to 80 without a trip to the range to see how well it shot...
