I am just starting to load for my 45-70 and i was WONDERING, I have a few books and they all have the marlin 1895 and the ruger #1, now i know my H&R is not near as strong as the ruger BUT how much can I push the marlin 1895 load data? Now I have reloaded some useing the marlin data and a Barnes X bullet in 300 gr useing 54 gr. of H-322 with good results, I'm shooting Deer, 100-120 lbs Deer with open sights, And i am wondering, I like useing the peep sights but I am having trouble, real trouble @ about 80 yrds seeing what in the hell i'm shooting at, now I'm young and I have good eye sight so can anyone give me pointers to peep sights? and NO i dont want to use a scope! and is 100 yrds pushing peep sights?:banghead:
