On white tailed deer and similar game the bullet is devastating. With my 1886 shooting Winchester Gold 300 grain Nosler PP from a distance of 110 yards, the bullet took out two ribs going in and 4 ribs going out; essentially destroyed the chest and all in it. This was a 6 point buck and was good eating.
MV was 1850 fps.

Those are the ballistics of the 300gr. .45/70 trapdoor factory load now.

I would expect an 86 in .45/70 should be able to do 2,200fps with that.
Is that what was used on the Leo?
