Re: '73 '76 action strength
The 76 receiver is not long enough for the 45/70, so they simply shortened it to a bottle neck round. Bullets much heavier than 375 grains don't stabilize well and will keyhole. A 45/75 with a full case of FF Black Powder is nothing to sneeze at to be sure. It will kill anything on this continent ju...

Re: 1876 for Brown Bear
I shoot 350 grain bullets in both my 50/95 and 45/75, Barnes in the .50 and Berry's in the .45. If it could take a griz in the 1800's, it can do it now. Bears aren't any tougher. I cast bullets for both and are the main bullets for both. Even the 45/60 like the 350 grainers.
