The direct conversion from 2200 BAR to PSI is 31,900 PSI. The SAAMI pressure rating for the 45-70 Gov't is 28,000 CUP, while the CIP rating is 32,000 PSI. So the 2200 BAR is the CIP pressure rating.

found this data so it should take a good hornaday factory load and not just the weeney trapdoor load this is starting to look better and better.

You don't know what you're talking about. Remington is selling the gun, and they do know. They say 28,000 PSI SAAMI loads max. One more time, CIP and SAAMI pressure data are not the same.
