Sorry, I stand corrected......his Henry 45.70 isn't a mares leg but it is a short looking thing.The mares leg of his is a .357

There are some people who really don't have the slightest clue what they are talking about. All the more compounded when "advising" others....
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

Likewise, you've appeared to to attempt to impart knowledge and wisdom with "Sheeple Englandstan" opines and the likes. You need more reading.....
