The answer is no. The locking mortices in the receiver will peen out of shape in no time depending on how many rounds are put down the tube. I had an older Marlin circa '72 that had this happen to me with around 3000 rounds of Ol' Elmer's load. I thought that it was just getting sour when I decided to convert it to a 475 JDJ which is a 4570 case blown out to 476. The smith at JD Jones' called me and asked me what I had shot in it since the mortices were badly peened and had to me redone before the conversion.

Lo do they call to me,
They bid me take my place among
them in the Halls of Valhalla,
Where the brave may live forever.
