The Ultramax .45-70 Government 430gr Hard Cast MAX +P is a hard-cast lever-action load for dangerous-game defense, packed as a 20-round box (Ultramax part no. ULT-45-70-1-N). Ultramax places it in its MAX line, where heavy-for-caliber Hi-Tek coated hard cast bullets are paired with full-power loading for deep, straight-line penetration. The bullet weighs 430 grains and the maker rates muzzle velocity at 1801 fps with 3098 ft-lb of energy. It suits a shooter who wants this load for its stated job rather than a general-purpose cartridge. A single box holds 20 rounds, so the count you see is exactly what arrives.
