45-70 Guide Gun

[Dark Stanley]

I have just souped up my Guide gun and wanted to see if anyone here thinks I'm crazy (like the guy at the gun shop). I have just fitted a custom made muzzle break to my guide gun as the recoil was so severe. I use hot loads Rem 300gr JHP travelling at 2424fps with recoil at 43 ft/lbs at 20fps. This recoil should be greatly reduced by the brake at the expense of shock wave and noise, but that just makes it more fun. Keen to find out what others think. I haven't tried it out yet but will tomorrow.

Hi,

Weren't the Guide Guns already ported from the factory? The one I shot was.


Catch you later,

Originally they were but they stopped doing it because they had too many complaints.
