The heavier bullet produced significantly superior ballistics and could reach ranges of 3,350 yd (3,060 m), which were beyond the maximum range of the .45-70-405. While the effective range of the .45-70 on individual targets was limited to about 1,000 yd (910 m) with either load, the heavier bullet produced lethal injuries at 3,500 yards (3,200 m).
The Model 1874 rifles and carbines were available in a variety of calibers, including .45-70, .45-110, and .45-120.

A 70-year-old can receive up to $58,476 this year, while a 62-year-old can only max out at $32,520. One is a solid middle-class income; the other will probably need to supplement Social Security ...
With the addition of clinometers fixed machine gun squads could set long ranges and deliver plunging fire or indirect fire at more than 2,500 m (2,730 yd). This indirect firing method exploits the maximal practical range, that is defined by the maximum range of a small-arms projectile while still maintaining the minimum kinetic energy required to put unprotected personnel out of action, which ...
