was wondering if anybody deer hunted with a 45/70. I was thinking of getting a barrel for my encore in that caliber for short range thicket hunting
W4DSB said:I use a 45-70 marlin sometimes and boy that thing is like a sledge hammer on Game. I think without looking that it is a model 1895 that is a little longer than some of them.
Recoil is very managable for me
