45-70
I think I want a 45-70 for my encore,how far can I push an encore? do I use trapdoor data or can I use ruger #1 data? I have a 444 marlin for my contender so I want something BIGGER and better.
I'm not completly set on a 45-70, so is there anything better? Thanks for any suggestions.

The Encore is chambered in 300 Win Mag, 375 H&H, 458 Win Mag and etc. by either the factory or custom barrel makers. What would that tell you about what they will handle? 500 gr Hornady,s at 1600 is doable.
