45-70 1895g

Hello all, I recently purchaced a marlin 1895g and took it out shooting last week,all i can say is holy (expletive) this is the most fun ive had since i was 10. I plan on going boar hunting next winter, so far the loads ive shot were remingtons 300gr load and hornadys325gr load. Ive also got some garret 540 grn rounds on order.Im wondering if anybody else on this forum has any 45-70 expiriences(spelled wrong). This has now become my new favorite round. Thanks for any input.

45-70

45-70 500gr loads would have to hurt like a sonofabitch in a handgun. Im looking forward to seeing what the garret loads do in the marlin.I am amazed that this is the first self contained cartridge
in centerfire history. Thanks for the reply
