Bringing a renewed focus to ammunition, innovation, and quality, we are reinvigorating our company so you can continue to trust our brand and our products – all while staying true to Remington’s legendary heritage and stature as an American icon.
I for one am looking forward to seeing this. Perfect for us here in Ohio. I can’t use my trusty 30-30 or .308. I have a 45-70 but I really don’t enjoy shooting it. I’m of a smaller frame and is over kill and kicks too much. I would love to see this in an AR platform. Just one vote for something that’s been needed for a long time.
I suspect it is too long for an AR-15, though it may work in an AR-10. For AR-15 you might consider 350 or 450 bushmaster. 450 shoots slightly higher velocity than 45-70, but with about half the projectile weight so nearly half the recoil.
Yet another unnecessary cartridge developed to fill a minimal niche market in a few states requiring straight wall cartridges (????). Other more established cartridges are starving for ammo and you have to come up with this? Ultimate straight wall cartridge? Try cranking out some 405 Winchester ammo which is almost impossible to find.
You make more money by reinventing the wheel. There are many vintage cartridges that fit this need, and deserve a rebirth.
What other options would you suggest for us in those states? I do not enjoy high recoil guns, this just seems right for my use.
What velocity from what length barrels, & what rifles come in it?
Use Google or DuckDuckGo. I did and found a lot of information your asking about.
