Good choice, I just put one on my 1895ss 45/70. Want to use it as a brush gun for black bear and pig. Still havant had a chance to try it yet as my gun smith has my rifle and is porting it for me, as you get older the recoil from heavy loads seems to take a tole on the old body. Any way after I get it back will take it out and see ifin I can hit anything with it.
