[QUOTE="Blitzfike, post: 1260377, member: 807"] I load quite a bit of 45-70, for both a NEF Handi Rifle (Kills on both ends..) and a Marlin 1895 lever gun. I don't load very hot loads, so I don't have to keep them separated per rifle. I find that I have to trim after two firings to keep the cases crimping correctly without bulges. If I bought a Lee factory crimp die I could probably go longer between trimming them. I shoot either 340 grain hard cast lead or 405 grain hard cast lead. I am still experimenting with loads for both, and have only loaded about 500 total so far. Blitz [/QUOTE]
