Description

Our 45-70 Is Ready To Shoot

This is our newest 45-70 load and it offers a great option for target shooting with single shot rifles. It was developed for the 1873 “Trapdoor” Springfields and falling blocks.  These projectiles are cast from a softer alloy (BHN 16) and are ideal for the lower pressure and velocity of a proper Trapdoor load.  Decent bores will stabilize these heavy and long projectiles but severely damaged and/or worn barrels may produce keyholing.

Why Use 45-70 Trapdoor Ammo?

Our 45-70 Springfield trapdoor bullets are loaded with smokeless powder, and every batch is pressure tested to ensure they do not exceed the limits of older rifles. Not only do we pressure test in a universal receiver, but we also use a Trapdoor rifle to test the velocity and consistency. Because this is an ammo typically used for a vintage firearm, they are widely used for target shooting to experience the feel of an old rifle. If you’re looking to see what it’s like handling an older-style weapon with the bullets that were intended for it, look no further than Trapdoor loads from Steinel Ammo.
