^^^^

I have seen the movie but I did not remember what the things were called.

I am not trolling. The "mostly" edit is because I shoot more paper then living creatures but plan on taking a Cape Buffalo in the next year or two and want the revolver for back up.

Elk mostly. I do not know what a Graboids is.

I'm now certain you're trolling. Well played.

so every gun will do it?

Every one with a .357 bore that I ever owned would if you shot it enough. The .429 bore rifles never saw factory ammo.

It was guns not gun.

Elk. I do not know what a Graboids is.

The graboid is a fictional species of sandworm that acts as the primary antagonist of the Tremors series of films.

[svauto-erotic855]

well that doenst seem like a fair comparison at all. How do we know it wasnt something wrong with the gun?

Penetration? Are you shooting Graboids?

Hit the range then; I will give you the ammo. No cleaning until the test is over.

I ditched my rifles because they really climbed in value and I did not like them. The test will have to wait until another time I guess.

[svauto-erotic855]

In a rifle, surely. In a revolver, though? Here's a better question: if you already have the Casull, why not shoot .45 Colt out of it? Or if you reload it, why not load it down? A .45-70 revolver is a pain in the ass.

I do roll my own loads. The difference in the starting load and the max load published for .454 is minimal. I don't switch to .45 Colt because I want the penetration that the .454 provides. I owned a .454 in a magnum research BFR but sold it; I only have a Ruger Super Redhawk in .454 now. I plan to get a magnum research BFR in 45/70 as soon as I find one at a decent price.

Sure you provide ammo and rifle. Mine has been traded on for bigger and better things.

They don't use the same bullet, and if you think you're in for less recoil, go for it.

Slip of the finger; I meant exact same weight bullet.

I have shot both; there is a VERY noticeable reduction in recoil with the 45/70.

[YALE]

No; the recoil impulse from the .454 is dramatically harder then the same hand gun in 45/70 while the ballistics are nearly identical when using the exact same bullet. 35,000psi chamber pressure in the 45/70 vs 63,000psi chamber pressure in the .454.

Doubtful since you seem to be the only person on the Internet with a issue. This is the second topic google picks up.
