I went shooting here this last weekend with a Pedersoli 1886 in .45/70.

The load was 46,5grain N130 + 400grain hardcast. That load was a smoking load and with easy extraction. That load could finish a cape buffalo. The recoil wasn`t a .450Nitro...but it was up there.

Those Pedersoli model 71/86's are REALLY nice rifles. Exceptionally smooth actions too. My Bro has one and I'm trying to trade him out of it with my Model 76 in .50/95. No luck so far. lol
