[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 2945962, member: 313"] You are loading the WRONG Barnes bullet for the 45-70. The correct .458 300gr TSX FN bullet has a huge flat nose with a 1/2" open cavity. The correct bullet when seated properly will align a groove for crimping and will cycle through the action of a Marlin without any issues. I shoot the Barnes 300TSX FN at 2,000 fps. Recoil is moderate and the bullet is devastating on whitetails and black bears. [/QUOTE]
