Anyone have Hornady reloading data for the 325 grain 458 FTX bullet for the 45-70?
I do, but I need to know if it's a 45-70 government (trapdoor), or a 45-70 government (1895 marlin). The barrel pressure difference between the two is enormous and I would not like your gun to become a bomb. The trapdoor is 25,000 C.U.P. While the 1895 Marlin is 40,000 C.U.P. Let me know and I'll give you the data.
What else can I help you with?

A .17 cal. hornady is good for anything from target shooting on up to coyotes. You have to remember a .17 bullet is smaller than a .22 bullet but it packs 10x the punch and is alot faster and flatter. I have a .17 in a marlin 917 laminated stock with stainless bull barrel it is sighted in at 200 yards. I have dropped a big coyote from 250 yards with it. I shoot the .17 grain hornady vmax bullets.
What bullet is recommended for a BDL 700 25-06?
117 grain .257 diameter is a good all around choice for reloading. Factory ammo probably ranges from 117 to 120 grs. for that particular weight range of 25-06 ammo. Pointed tip [spitser] and boat-tail base will shoot the flattest...Hornady, Speer, Sierra, Nosler, Remington, Winchester, Barnes, etc. all offer bullets for reloading in .257 caliber. My two favorites are Sierra and Hornady but other makes are well liked also...reloading manuals are an invaluable aid to reload safely and accurately...good luck... I like 75 and 87 grain bullets for varmints and 100, 115, 117, 120 boat tail spire point for deer.

The muzzle velocity of a Winchester .30-30 varies depending on the load and the bullet, but we can ball park things a bit. With a "standard" load and a 110 grain bullet, it's about 2,690 fps (feet per second). For a 130 grain bullet, about 2,500 fps. A 150 grain bullet cuts it to about 2,400 fps. With the 170 grain bullet, it drops to about 2,200 fps.
