Let me start off by saying sorry, if I upset anybody, but a 4570 has a rainbow arc of trajectory. If you want something flat get a 30-06. Don't get me wrong. I was a recoil junkie when I was much much younger these days. My shoulder doesn't like it. I have a Marlin 1895 and a Winchester 1886, the Winchester with the crescent butt plate, it'll handle anything I feed it. but the Crescent butt plate and my shoulder have serious disagreements with the heavier loads. Now what I've said that the load that I use these days is somewhere between 36 and 44 grains of either 4198 or 3031. This will get you somewhere between 1300 and 1450 fps on the upper end out of the Winchester being a 10 pound gun, the 1450 feet per second it's comfortable, they are accurate. There is a Vernier Tang site on the Winchester and I can shoot out to 500 yd. But reality check most deer hunting situations are under a 100 yd. But I've also taken deer out to 200 yds no problem, and it will knock a deer down with a softer alloy or jacketed hollow point. That's just my 2 cents worth. Hope it helps if you like the harder shooting ones fine. You want something softer and easier? Also fine, but just remember, the 4570 came out in the later part of the 1800s and it can take a buffalo. So I think the round is plenty stout enough. Again, just my 2 cents worth. Hope that helps.
