Look what I've got! (lever action porn, don't click if sensitive)

It was a long time in decision-making, then saving up, then almost as long on back order but I do rather think it's been worth the wait

@alberta boy and @smelldog you have a lot to answer for

 

[Smellydog]

Leverguns and revolver cartridges, a marriage made in heaven

[Klenchblaize]

The Op's warning is woefully inadequte as no mention that a rail was to be viewed!

would it be deer legal? whats the accuracy like. could you hit a rabbit at 100m?

 

[tackb]

But I can't shoot a 45-70 in pistol calibre competitions... I do want one, though

just tell them it's a pistol calibre and show them a picture !

or tell them its a 45LC improved ?

Deer legal, yes. Certainly for muntjac, potentially for larger species in England/Wales subject to meeting energy requirements. My intention is to work up a hunting load alongside playing with it at the range.

Muntjac & CWD legal in England & Wales, even with factory ammunition. Barrel length is critical to get required MV to reach the other legal threshold of 1700 ft lbs. I can get 1700ft lb plus loading 210g or 240g Sierra JHC and 200g Hornady XTP on top of Hodgdon H110 from a 20” barrel.

I'm looking at 200gr Barnes XPB, but this is only a 16.5 inch barrel so it may not quite get there... Muntjac won't like it either way!

A real joy in 45/70.

 

[oneforthepot]

Very nice, I imagine will make a lovely rifle to carry through the woods.

They are.

 

[oneforthepot]

They are.

The proofs in the pudding !

 

[oneforthepot]

I do often think would be nice to have a lighter weight rifle, not as a replacement for my stalking rifle but as something else to take out for a different kind of shooting. A lever action, or a kipplauf or a combination gun etc... would beat lugging the plastic fantastic beast around. Leave the thermal and massive binos in harness etc at home, just a nice lightweight compact pair round the neck.

Only if you could throw' it that far?
