Re: Is a true 70-150 on an 1887 (clone?) actually doable?

12 gauge is .729-.730, so I dont see how it couldn't be done. Although I bet you might have a hard time finding a barrel for .700 .

Buckshot, 4buck up to OOO are legal for deer, not bear. 'Pumpkin balls' are not. Only reasoning I can see for them being illegal - pumpkin ball could be the accuracy issue, be kind of interesting to try them through a rifled barrel or choke tube.
