[QUOTE="Remi, post: 5685705, member: 21887"] If he has a 30-30 he’s not going to see much difference with the 35 Rem. At least with a 45/70 it feels like you’re loading a cigar into the chamber. Lol For factory loads Federal blue box 300’s use the 300gr Speer Unicore, excellent bullet. Remington makes 405’s that are now going around 1600fps which is slightly above trapdoor pressures. Ive read good things about the 325 Hornady loads. A few guys around here speak highly of them also. You can get Buffalo bore and a few others that max out the 45/70 but it gets real unfun real fast. I load 300’s at 2000fps, 350’s at 1920fps and 405’s at 1600fps. I’ve ran them hotter but it’s pointless. [/QUOTE]
