    Back country carry gun

    My Springfiled V16 is mostly stainless As I live in Colorado not Alaska, rust is less of an issue. I'm comfortable carrying it, and shooting it which is the most important thing.

    Back country carry gun

    I carry my Springfield V16 longslide in 45 Super. Hits like a 44 mag (Buffalo Bore 45 Super 255g hardcast at 1100 fps), kicks like a 9mm and carrys like a 45.

    Thoughts on Recoil/Tables, Learnt my Lesson

    Happy D-Day if that's such a thing to you. Your 45-70 if it's a lever gun probably has a much narrower butt section too which concentrates the recoil.

    Suppressor or Mercury Recoil Reducer - DG

    I have two mercury recoil reducers that were installed by the CZ Custom Shop in my 500 Jeffery when I bought it from them. The balance is perfect, no sloshing that I can hear and over 500 full power rounds through it with no issues.

    Rechamber Options - 375 Dakota

    Wayne at AHR used to make custom LH rifles based on the CZ 500 action that were reasonable in price and great in quality. Not sure if he's still doing that.

    Who traditionally had the higher build quality -- Winchester Model 70 or CZ?

    I love Winchester Model 70s I have a classic in 416 Rem Mag (stainless/synthetic) but I like my CZ 550 in 500 Jeffery a lot better. Action is so solid, like a bank vault.

    One more firearm...or are you done?

    I'm pretty much set with handguns and hunting rifles and shotguns, but for self defense and of course the Zombie Apocalypse thinking about buying two Daniels M4s (one for each son), a 50 Barrett for myself and a Zabala SxS 10 gauge (have a gunsmith shorten the barrels to 22".
