There's one thing certainly true about the .45/70. It elicits strong opinions on both sides.

As for me, if the question is whether to buy a Baikal in .45/70 or .30-06 the answer is easy. They are so cheap, buy both. Then after playing with them, either keep both or sell the one you don't like as much. There's no way to lose like that.

You will probably end up keeping both, as each caliber is great in its own right. They don't really overlap.

I really don't think anybody here is asserting that the .45/70 is a dangerous game rifle cartridge, which it plainly is not. Daryl says it plays hell on moose. That's something he unquestionably knows about. I'll accept that. I'm sure as heck not going to hunt something that bites or stomps using a .45/70, and I don't think Daryl is advocating that.

I've owned several .45/70's but never hunted with them. The Pedersoli I had would make a fine hunting rifle used within its limitations. Daryl says great for North American game. I agree.
