Yup, shoot a Buffalo Classic in 45/70 and a Neff Ultra Varmint in .223. Have also started my grandson out on a Rossi with barrels in .22 and .410. Reloading for them is almost as much fun as shooting.

405gr LRNFP

I shoot 12 grains of Unique behind a 405gr Lasercast for a velocity of 1100fps. It is an accurate load in my Buffalo Classic.:-D
