PMC OFFERS 45-90 AND 40-65 TO COWBOY ACTION SHOOTERS
With the addition of a 260 gr. .40-65 Win and a 300 gr. .45-90 Win, PMC now
offers one of the most accurate and complete (9 cartridges) line of factory
loaded cowboy action ammunition. All PMC cowboy action ammunition is
designed for performance and authenticity, from the hard cast lead flat point
bullets to the "Old West" style packaging typical of the late 1800's.
The new 45-90 and 40-65 loads are also authentic reproductions of the historic
original cartridges. The .40-65 Winchester dates back to 1887, and was
designed for repeating rifles in an attempt to compete with the higher powered
single shot cartridges. Fairly popular for over 50 years, rifles that chamber the
45-65 are relatively common, and are popular with Cowboy Action competitive
shooters.
The 45-90 was introduced in 1886 for big game at moderate ranges. The 300
gr. bullet achieves a flattened trajectory for long shots. The Marlin Model 1895
and the Winchester Model 1886 are popular reproduction rifles chambered for
the 45-90.
