/s (sarcasm on title)

Went to the range with my buddy to try out my fully cleaned SKS and was having a blast with it 10/10.

He wanted to get his rifle ready to get a bear starting sept 1st. So he invites me to take the first shot from his savage 110 in 300wsm. Tells me its a bit strong like the 308win Tikka i have. So i be prepared to shoot it.

HOLY FUCK B'Y !!

Like what on God's green earth is this tf!? Buddy died laughing and i was astonished by the power this cartridge has.

Guys who shoot this, dont knock on my door please. 😭

Brought it with me as a keepsake and as a goal to master it one day.

Heavy but slow. I find it makes less mess than my 7mag

I’ve never shot 45-70, but it’s one on my list in the next few years. I fish a lot of backcountry areas full of grizzlies. Plus I just have a thing for classic lever guns, not my primary hunting guns but fun to shoot and great for bush carry and opportunity during hunting season at work.

I don’t have a break on mine but it is a short barrel for the bush. It kicks no harder than 300wm does. Less even
