I know it's not boring to you nostalgic guys, so enjoy it!!! I just prefered the newer cartridge. They are ballistically identical given the same loading. I think the brass will be around forever. After all, the .45-70 brass has been around awhile, and it's the ugliest case I've ever seen!!!

Seriously, to each his own!!! As long as you'll stand with me on our 2nd amendment rights, I don't care what you shoot!!!
