Congratulations on a successful hunt. 70 grains of 3f sounds like a stout load for a Seneca, but it obviously works for you. I would love to find a .45 caliber Seneca, its the smallest legal caliber, for deer, here in Indiana and they feel good in the hand..........robin :applause:

Welcome to the forum. You experienced what is quite normal for a deer-hit with a .45.

 

[powderrr46kegg]

thanks for all the replies I use t/c Hawkins 54cal most of the time. I did not expect such good performance

Those 45 caliber Senecas are known to be awfully hard on Whitetails. :thumbsup:

Slick little rifles.

Welcome and congratulations, Skychief. :hatsoff:

Great Job! :thumbsup:
Thats a hefty load for a Seneca.I'm using 50grs and flopping them.
I save the 70gr charges for my 45 TC Hawken.
