Maybe not dinosaurs, but to satisfy my inner Chuck Connors

It's bullshit how movies show guys with m4 carbines running from t-rexes. I bet a full clip on full auto would annihilate a t-rex. Aim for the legs.

New to guns how is the kick on 45-70? I've heard some people say it's no worse than a 12 gauge but then you get the people saying it kicks like a mule

>>31626177
stout, not uncomfortable, but you wouldn't want to shoot it all day either

which is a good thing because the ammo isn't cheap either

because 30-30! pic related, it'seems the awesome lever gun my grandfather used to take dear in LA when there were dear in LA.

Help me justify buying a 45/70 when my range has no steel policy and 100 yard max.

Also no rifle hunting in NJ.

Is 45/70 inexpensive to reload?

>>31626061

Eh, I think I'll pass on 5.56 vs Thing That Can Crush Cars.

I'll go for an M2 mounted on an MRAP with a cage.

>>31626525
Well there is no steel ammo for .45/70 so that makes it pretty easy.

>Implying 458 Socom isn't best Dino caliber

>>31626544

It's a cartridge that does best at 200 and closer and you wouldn't be able to readily find steel anyways. It's not bad to reload for and it has the advantage of being a relatively fast-firing, hard-hitting platform that will survive all gun control. That said, for your case you might consider something milder.

Rossi m92 in 357. Won't kill a t-rex, but it'll fuck up a deer at 70 yards without turning it into ground meat

>>31626177
Depends on the round. Cowboy action loads are no issue whereas 500 grain +P Buffalo Bores will leave bruises.

Despite owning a 45-70 1886, I'd first go for the 375 H&H if up against dinosaurs, deathclaws, verdugos, or skagzillas.

>>31627982
Probably shotguns and muzzleloaders.

>>31627982
Shotguns and black powder rifles.

Bows too but that's a different season

I hunt with a Marlin 336c every year even though I have I have a long range Savage Model 10. 336 was my first rifle from my dad at 17 and I will hunt with it every season till I die.

>>31626627
But those same bullshit laws allow me to hunt deer with a Springfield Model 1868 which is an absolute joy. Nothing like putting meat on your table with a 147 year old gun.

This right here WILL kill a Trex.

Dinosaurs have vital internals too.

This would probably pass clean through and bust through ribs, both lungs, and the heart and exit the other side. It'd definitely bust through a leg bone and incapacitate.

People have killed two elk with one shot from standard grain and mid range charged 45-70s.

I would LOVE to own a Marlin in .45-70, but I don't load and .45-70 is pricey as fuck.
Maybe when I get more financially stable and other things in life settled and sorted out.

What if one elk depended on the other elk for life support or food or something. Then you kill the elk that is being depended on.

I think the implication is that the bullet passed through the first elk and into a second elk some distance behind the original and killed the second one as well, but sounds implausible
