RE: Hi Guys
Thanks guys.

Not too much of a bank account to lose so I may as well have some fun.

I ordered a 45-70 because I have the dies, brass and a Lyman Mould I can use. I also shoot at a 1K yard range almost monthly so I'd like to try and stretch it out a bit.

I also ordered a .22LR barrel for it. My thoughts are that I can use that for easy practice close to home so hopefully the steel won't seem so far away on match day.

I can see myself in the future with a 40-65 or similar for less recoil and whitetail hunting. I already set aside some Hornady 'short - Leverevolution ' 45-70 brass to form into 40-65 when I'm starting that project.

I'm really looking forward to this.
