Its a stunt, and sure it can be done

Also read an article by a Idaho gunscribe who proved it could be done, he shot his 5 times over about a mile and was satisfied the 45-70 was a Buff rifle...

It is a stunt , is an understatement! It is not the best choice, even if it were legal! I wouldn't trade one shot from a 375 H&H rifle for twenty from any 45-70 I own,(I have a ruger No1, and Siamese Mauser, and a S/S double rifle chambered for 45-70) on Cape Buffalo. Simply because it can be done, is no justification for doing it, IMO!!
