45-70 bolt action

Dang, that rifle is nice!

I agree that a gloss, straight-tubed Leupold would be perfect for that cartridge and the full stock.
 
Apparently, you shot that group with barrel sights. Why in the world would you waste money on a scope when you already have it shooting that well? A scope just makes it heavier and harder to carry.

Do you know what the twist rate is in that barrel?

I've only shot it with the 4x33 Leupold. A rear peep would work well, but I much prefer a scope.

I have not measured the twist, but it's on the slow side.
 
Wow!!! I really like that. Ever wanna sell...let me know. I have a TC Contender in 45-70. Kicks like a mother but is a deer killer
