BPTR Rifle Suggestions

[Kurt]

I will go along with the .45-90 also. It's a good case that will let you work up powder loads for what you need for long range.
I have the .44-90 bn chambers on two of my rifles and it is a good shooting cartridge but getting cases is almost impossible now days for a good price but it's a very good caliber for long range and large game hunting.
My .44-100 on a .45 2.6" case has the best accuracy. It out performs all of my other calibers I have but it sports a 35" long 1.3" round untampered barrel with a 1/17 ROT it just flat outshoots everything I have but it does not get used often because of it's weight.
But all in all a .45-90 32" barrel I think is ideal.

BUT for long range the .50-2.5 32" HVY 1/22 ROT barrel is another very good long range caliber using the 700 plus grain bullets if recoil is not a problem. It has collected a lot of dust collectors for me.
