Between that and the Jurassic Park rifle that is what drove Marlin .45-70 rifle prices to the moon. In fact when Ruger started making them again after they bought Marlin it was the first model they made.Decent movie.
Watched it last year.
I've never shot one.Between that and the Jurassic Park rifle that is what drove Marlin .45-70 rifle prices to the moon.
Just a little but a lever-action is no joke as far as quickness goes in the right hands. If memory serves it will hold either 6-7 rounds in that configuration...... The .45-70 cartridge is no joke either in some of the hotter loadings made for modern lever guns.Two two guys in front of the trailer went down as normal, but the guy in the trailer was taken off his feet. Renner had only one rifle. Perhaps a little Hollywood at work.
Oh, it's all good. Renner sitting in his house making his own rounds was pretty cool, and the scene in the beginning where he killed the wolf, that was a real deal kill (not by him, but by someone).Just a little but a lever-action is no joke as far as quickness goes in the right hands.

LOL....Sorry I did not mean to turn this into a "gun thread". Great movie.
Most of the time their families just think they took off for a better life someplace else and don't even report them missing till any warm leads are long cold.Oh, it's all good.

In the end, when it spoke of no statistics on Native American women missing, there are a lot of these women who go missing, it's pretty shocking how many, and it's even worse in Canada, I think.
Yes. Good movie.Anyone see it?
Just don't see the appeal.Between that and the Jurassic Park rifle that is what drove Marlin .45-70 rifle prices to the moon. In fact when Ruger started making them again after they bought Marlin it was the first model they made.
For $2200.00....They can keep them.

I have a 1901 M1895 SRC in .30 Army (.30-40 Krag).Just don't see the appeal.
Give me a 30-06 magazine fed bolt action anyday over a 45/70 lever. A significantly more capable cartridge in every respect.
You can even get one in lever action of that tickles your fancy...

Legendary. Here is an opportunity to own a unique part of the Winchester legacy. It was one of the first rifles to incorporate a non-detachable box magazine.
Keep in mind that most people with a modern .45/70 don't fire factory ammo. .45/70 factory ammo is designed for old low-chamber-pressure guns.Just don't see the appeal.

There are now factory loads for modern lever actions that are very good.Keep in mind that most people with a modern .45/70 don't fire factory ammo. .45/70 factory ammo is designed for old low-chamber-pressure guns.
They handload their own ammo to much higher chamber pressures that can be handled by modern guns. Note that he handloaded his own ammo in the movie.
A .45/70 handloaded to high chamber pressures isn't quite on par with an elephant gun, but it's getting near that neighborhood.
So .45/70 means 70 grains in the jacket, huh? I was told by a co worker that he fired .45/120 rounds that he has made. That got me thinking about the physics of it all, whether or not increased velocity means less accuracy but greater range. I definitely liked that Marlin rifle, I've always wanted a Winchester 1873 lever action, due to its historical significance.
