njJoniGuy 2,129 Posted May 10, 2020 I really like my Henry 45-70 lever gun. And especially the ability to load anywhere from powder-puff loads I can shoot all day long all the way up to dinosaur killers! And then I saw this new 45-70 Auto video! Seems it shoots a new rimless 45-70 that has even more power than the century-plus old buffalo killer.Holy crap it looks like fun!!!!! 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JohnnyB 4,289 Posted May 10, 2020 The ammo is only available from Phoenix Arms @ $4.50 per round, $90 per box of 20 (not including shipping)! I think I'll hold off on this one for now! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd love to shoot it at the range if a friend had one, but I'd never throw money at it... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
