That would be fun in a lever action rifle.I have a lever-action Winchester in .45-70.
That's 405 grains of projectile running at 1675+ FPS.
It gets less fun to shoot the older I get.

Yeah, a 45 70 might just hurt a bit.

Can you go to lighter loads to lessen the shock stress?

That’s a very, very sweet piece, efs. Anytime you want to sell it, FReepmail me. At 62, I don’t mind any recoil, yet. My .50cal Beowulf, .50cal Barrett BMG and Remy Tactical 12ga’s don’t bother me at all.
