[QUOTE="Dean2, post: 2182045, member: 26077"] A 45-70 is basically a short cased 45-90. There is no reason you should be concerned about shooting them in a 45-90 action. If you compare the two, rim, case etc diameters are all exactly the same. No different than shooting a 2.75" 12 gauge in a gun chambered to take 3.5" shells. Shorter no problem, longer doesn't so 45-90 in a 45-70 doesn't work same as a 3.5" in a 2.75" shotgun chamber. [/QUOTE]
