" To continue your argument wouldn't you need to prove that the 45-70 is not capable of pierceing the brain of a sleeping croc,hippo?"

Is that how you usually hunt, plugging animals in their sleep? Also wouldn't it be you that has to prove that it can? There are mountains of evidence that prove the standard DG cartridges as being very effective on all DG but basically non that proves the 45-70 even adequate.

I am done feeding the troll for the moment and will no longer participate in this thread. Your ideas are completely asinine and your logic is faulty. Personally I think that you are Cats.

But please by all means, post some pictures of yourself hunting DG with your 45-70. On second thought, post pictures of yourself hunting at all. Have you ever been to Africa? Have you ever seen any of the DG of Africa on their own turf. I assure you they are much different in real life then in books.

Where do you currently live, couldn't be Pennsylvania could it?
