Ren3,

Not bashing 45/70 currently have a REM double rifle, REM rolling block,, 1885 REM LEE Navy all in said caliber. Just want to try something different. Jeffe and others have been kind enough to share knowledge and experience with someone preparing to build his first double. Plus I really enjoy talk with others that like big bore rifles as I find under 40 cal boring. My buff classic was the easiest to open to a 45/120 and if I messed it up HR will fit a new barrel in 45/70 for under $120.

Have a good evening.

Dave
