  They are different calibers. The .45-70 is .458 caliber and the .410 shotshell is .410 caliber.

  It's a possibility that the gun has an oversized chamber, specifically in the region of the case rim. The
  pressure during firing could be expanding the head to the point that the primer pockets are en...

  I like the look of a dark-stained linseed oil finish, such as found on many older rifles. I have found
  basic hardware store boiled linseed oil to work very well for a stained bare stock. I'm not much ...

  i agree 100%! :DWhat kind of 375 h&h do you have?It's a Sako AV. Originally it wouldn't shoot worth a

  I have recovered two 300 grain .375 TSX's from 2 moose that I shot, and they look identical to the one
  you have pictured. The same for two 53 grainers using a .223 on deer. There have been many other ...
