A MERC 45 70 ammo 405 gr
« on: July 26, 2008, 11:37:01 AM »
Got a couple boxes of this and wanted to know if anyone has shot much of it? At 13$ a box it is hard to pass up. I know it prouble shoots pretty dirty but being I have a BC and 1895 gg both in 4570 I was thinking of getting alot more for plinking and shooting paper.Any input would be great thanks

Matt, you'll have to give us a full report, I've never seen or heard of it, but I googled it and found a little info on it, it's actually A-Merc or American Ammunition.  http://www.a-merc.com/

Quik I shot a box out of my marlin leveraction and i think I could see the bullit going down range. Being it is not a hot load I am not suprized. I have not shot my Buffalo classic yet since I just got it last week but I think itwill  like the a merk better then the marlin did.I also picked up a few boxes of leverution to try out and some hot hunting loads from a local guy  for my buffalo classic. I just found some buffalo bore in the gun safe in 45 70 left over from my marlin so I have alot of different loads to try in my new gun.I have a feeling the buffalo bore rounds will hurt like hell
