Re: Howdah Pistol in modern calibres?

Quote:



Has anyone shot a .45/70 in a Thompson Contender or similar handgun? How does it perform? How manageable is the recoil?

Of course in a Howdah, it could be reloaded for lesser recoil.




I've shot far beyond standard 45-70 loads in a contender.
45-70 is manageable.

That 45/410 SxS Howdah could be pretty cool with blown-out 9.3x74r brass. I wonder how well the action can take elevated loads.
Might just have to find out.
