I have just recently acquired a buffalo classic in 45-70. I will be shooting BP out it exclusively. Does anyone have any sage advice?
Beyond that I have a few specific questions
Is it necessary to neck size?
Can/has anyone got any experience field loading this cartridge ie like Pope and the lads did at a match.
I have a capper decapper(pope style) for my 38-55 which I field load almost exclusively
Can the 45-70 be muzzle fed? I use this method occasionally with the 38-55 using a Pope style bullet starter and it actually does improve the groups
Any information to get me started would be great. I have about a week to wait before my assortment of brass and lead arrives
