What’s the Bullet Drop of .45-70 at 200 Yards?

I’m a fan of Remington’s 405 grain rounds. They perform well and help with energy retention at longer ranges. What about you all?

Remington is solid! I actually tried Hornady’s LeveRevolution last time and loved the ballistics. Great for consistent performance.

Using the .45-70 makes me feel nostalgic, like I’m a cowboy or something. Anyone else feel that way about vintage calibers?

Absolutely, it’s like a taste of history. Plus, it gets all the attention at the range! People are curious about it.

That attention can be entertaining! I joke that I’m not hunting; I’m just here to impress everyone with my vintage style.

Funny! But honestly, the nostalgia can turn into a bit of a contentious debate with modern-firearm enthusiasts. They tend to look down on the older calibers sometimes.

True! I’ve had that happen. But the .45-70 is still effective for hunting. It’s hard to argue with its stopping power!

All this bullet talk makes me wonder: Is it worth experimenting with various grains? Has anyone here switched things up for different game?
