[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 1316376, member: 25383"] On paper your right about the 45-70, but also a little wrong. Most lever guns are 40K psi rated. The .450 by design will go a little higher than the 45-70 in chamber pressure. Been around both rounds, and the only thing the 45-70 has going for it is the rimmed case (better extraction on a dangerous game gun). Plus the .450 seems to be a little tighter grouping round (Now I'd really like to know how the determined this!!) Accuracy wise the .444 is way ahead. gary [/QUOTE]
