Beautiful Rifle!
Mine is a 34" #1 Sporter in 45 2.1". My first trip to Whittington I manage to hit the buffalo 3 times out of 30 rounds fired, a 525gr Brooks Postell over 63 grains of Goex FFg. This time around it will be 69gr of Old Eynsford under the same bullet, wiping between shots. These chronographed at 1275 with an ES of 8 and SD of 2. Using a .060 vegetable fiber wad to compress the powder. That is some really good shooting John.
