[QUOTE="Tata Tibor, post: 1642469, member: 55256"] I owe and love the encore. Got few barrels for it, and three years ago I added 45-70 to collection for hunting in dense folliage. As soon as I was developing the load for it and shot about 20 rounds on the range doing so, I found why you should not go with any "strong" cartridge - it kicks like a mule. I can shot slugs from a shotgun the whole day and my shoulder can be sore (even though my friends mostly cannot shoot my rifles), however this was the first time when my shoulder was "colourfull" and sore for over a week. Normally I put on 7mm RM while hunting open spaces, but also 300WM are OK. The 45-70 is really for thick bush up to 200 yards, and one shot. [/QUOTE]
