[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 1291324, member: 25383"] without doing a bunch of digging, I'm surprised those bullets work well. They were designed for a lower velocity (hand gun?). I like the Hornaday 325 grain bullet, but wanted something with very deep penetration on large bears. Powder wise I started to mention AA2015br and 2230, and IMR3031. Never had much luck with 4198, but others have. One thing about AA2230 to remember that there are at least two versions and maybe even a third. The older 2230 Data is no where close to current stuff. The 2230 (current) shot very well in the Marlin .450, so I think it'd do well in the 45-70. gary [/QUOTE]
