"People do that when talking about the .45/70's potential, too "

Yes and I have set straight (exposed their lack of knowledge ) several on a couple of so called African forums. Most of them have never even heard of a 45-90, much less know what it has done and can do.

One of their claims is that it s common knowledge that lever action rifles are prone to jamming and therefore not safe for use on DG. Maybe in the hands of fools, but what rifle is safe in such hands?
