"Charlie Morgan" wrote in message Oh... My 45-70 is not a pistol! It's a big, honkin', antique buffalo rifle. When I shoot it, I put the stock against a tree so I don't dislocate my shoulder! They do make handguns that will take these cartridges, but holy cow, you'd need to be very careful of your stance, and tape up your wrists! Wussie. I've shot max loads in a 3" barreled Model 27 Smith, .44 mag. And I didn't tape my wrists. Couldn't keep the gun from rising up in my grip, but it wasn't painful. 45-70 is a black powder cartridge, not made for high internal pressures, so it can't be loaded up like a .44mag. Not to mention that the antique guns made for the cartridge wouldn't tolerate those sorts of high pressures. Big slug, but slow and with the trajectory of a bowling ball dropped off the roof. Max |

Kenny looks up and says, take your f*ckin yellin' somewhere else or I'll f*ck you up. Just like that he said it. No yelling. The guy put down his drink. I thought he was going to plant Kenny with one hand. Instead, he punched his buddy's arm and said let's get out of here, then left. I think it was all attitude that did it. In any case, it was impressive. It's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog.

I've known a couple of people who were real live ass-kickers, including a few lady karate instructors. None of them felt the need to brag. I have also been friends with a few real Navy SEALS, all of whom were of average size (but if you looked close, you saw the whipcord physique) and tended to like trouble occasionally.... but still didn't brag about how bad-ass they were. Whether it's money, sex, sailing skill, or pretty much anything else, the louder the brag the less the reality. Fresh Breezes- Doug King |

Oh... My 45-70 is not a pistol! It's a big, honkin', antique buffalo rifle. When I shoot it, I put the stock against a tree so I don't dislocate my shoulder! Yeah, I bet. In fact, you've almost certainly never owned or shot one. The barrels are very heavy, the muzzle velocity is relatively low, and the recoil not bad. ....

I've shot max loads in a 3" barreled Model 27 Smith, .44 mag. And I didn't tape my wrists. Couldn't keep the gun from rising up in my grip, but it wasn't painful. Now that has an air of credibility. There is a difference between muzzle rise & wrist-tape-necessitating recoil. People with no experience with fire arms tend to exaggerate. Besides, how the heck are you going to get a good sight picture with the shoulder stock against a tree? 45-70 is a black powder cartridge, not made for high internal pressures, so it can't be loaded up like a .44mag. Not to mention that the antique guns made for the cartridge wouldn't tolerate those sorts of high pressures. Big slug, but slow and with the trajectory of a bowling ball dropped off the roof. It's a little better than that. IIRC the drop was about a foot at 100 yards. It's why those old-timey rifles had fold-up rear sights like a tall letter "H". If you load it up for max velocity, you also get a very impressive muzzle flash. Have to be careful to not set the woods on fire. DSK |

Max Max, you are an idiot, in addition to not knowing anything about guns. I use 500 grain cartridges, and everybody who actually knows anything about guns knows that the 45-70 rifle has an effective range of 2 miles or better. Bwwwaaaaaaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah ahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You've been watching "Quigley Down Under," haven't ya. A .22 LR has a range of two miles if you aim it 45 degrees above the horizon, which is what you'd have to do with a 45-70. Give us fact, Einstein--not urban myths. You can BS to the general public all you want, but you'll not gain any quarter from experience arms owners. Max |
