Whats the loadMan oh man. I have a load that’s pushing a 250 gr. bullet 2,964 fps out of my CVA Scout. I’d love to see someone shoot one out of that.
Just load it light and go until it hurts or you’re at max, then back down until it doesn’t hurt again. Don’t let anyone else shoot it (for their safety) No one knows how much powder you put in the cases, and your a bad man handling a 45-70 revolver.I would hate to hold onto this thing lol

I remember somebody brought one to a bowling pin shoot we had once. Everybody gathered around to see what a .45/70 would do to a bowling pin. Would the pin go flying? Would it get blown in half? We never found out. The dude was so scared of the recoil, he never touched a pin.I would hate to hold onto this thing lol

.458 Cal-250gr Shock Hammer™ - Hammer Bullets
This 250gr Shock Hammer™ was designed specifically for the 45-70 Gov. This pure copper bullet will work well in the old trap door models as well as the lever action and modern rifles. With the big 1/4" hollow point it will be a hard hitting performer with excellent velocity for hunting big game.hammerbullets.com
I shot a .45-70 in about a 10" Contender once.... every once in a while that Ganglion Cyst it created flares up.
That is the definition of either insanity or stupidity.Okay then try this little gem. American Derringer M4 Alaskan survival in 45-70 https://www.genitron.com/Handgun/American-Derringer/Pistol/M-4-Alaskan-Survival/45-70-Gov/Variant-2
There's a youtube video a gunshop aquaintence posted from 2012, 45-70 derringer by southern comfort. I cant post a link here because of language after the shot. The muzzle blast blows the target off the clips and the language is because the shooters hand was broken by the 76ft/lbs of free recoil energy through the grip. Load was factory Hornady Leverevolution.
