I know the .45/70 is a real cannon. However, I made up some light loads using XMP 5744 powder and the standard 405-gr bullet. Recoil was mild and accuracy was really good. BTW, I have a Savage 99 in .303 Savage. That should qualify for the Cowboy Action shoots. Hope you do well.

Hello fellow shooters. Thank you for accepting me into TGO. I am 75-years old, a disabled veteran, and use a battery powered scooter for mobility. My dear wife JoAnne and I like to shoot, but now our shooting in limited mostly to an indoor range with the exception of an occasional visit to a friend's place who lives in the country side. At my age I have given many of our firearms away to sons and a few grandsons but JoAnne and I have kept enough to "sustain" us. Besides shooting one of my other interests is amateur radio. I am an extra-class license holder, WY3H. JoAnne and I took the CCW class through the Bradley County Sheriff's Dept. At the range, she shot a perfect 100, I shot a 98. Now I do have a question. Has anyone had experience with the Charter Arms .44 Special? I'd love you hear from you if you h ave. Thank you all, keep your powder dry and shoot straight.
