It is really satisfying to be a mediocre shot and shoot off-hand at 300 yds and hit a 2' x 3' piece of steel. I believe that is better than minute-of-moose. I passed on a (Farmdale?) Sharps in 45-110 that I regret, but I'm a fan of the afore mentioned Gov't round. If you are interested in the .45-70 also, show what you got......I'll post a pic or two of mine after @*&%(WORK) Wednesday.Finally got a few pics posted..........
Once upon a time, I owned a Browning High Wall in 45-70. I traded it for a Model 600 Remington in .350 Rem Mag. I wish I'd kept the High Wall and paid cash for the Remington.
