H010 45-70 With Hornady Leverevolution 325 FTX

[fortyshooter]

Not a Henry but my Marlin 1895 GS .45-70 seems to like those Hornady 325 rounds. They do pack a good punch!

I just tonight went into my local fleet store, they actually had about 200 boxes of 9mm, 1 box of 454 casull and 10 boxes of the Hornady 325, 45-70 pointy rounds... It's the first time there has been anything on the shelves for weeks. So, I grabbed 2 boxes of the 9mm (limit 2 boxes) cleaned them out of the 454 and grabbed 2 boxes of the 45-70. I'm going to try them out in my 1895 and see what they do. (might just go and buy two more boxes tomorrow too ) Still no primers though, they had some come in last week and they were gone in a day.

Curious, were the Hornady priced under $40 / box? I'd imagine there are some deer hunters in my area that are going to be skunked for45-70 ammo. The shelves were so bare at Fleet Farm last Wednesday you couldn't even find a box of Winchester rifled slugs....just sad compared to a year ago.

Dang... that's a deal and I'm surprised!

Sure is Im seeing 30 to 35.00 a box for target 9mm. But I have a line on some here and if it takes place I think the price will be good.

$34 a box for the Hornady' s... I picked up two more boxes today. It seems like they are still selling at last years prices (when they have it)

That's good to hear they are holding the prices in check when they wouldn't have to. Good for you to snag a couple more boxes of thumpers
