Glad to hear that a fellow Texan has added this fine weapon to his home. It is my firm belief that the GG is one of the most accruate weapons built on the levergun platform. I've had only a few boltguns that could rival how well the GG shoots. You will enjoy that little cannon I'm sure.
I live a bit south from you and work in the country. We shoot the hogs on the property I work, and never have I had a better hog gun!! It points, loads, and shoots fast and on the money. Never needed a followup shot with the 45-70, but this gives me the chance to shoot more than one now!
Again, glad your have this great weapon!
