    The stronger actions are usually considered the:
    Ruger #1
    Mauser
    NEF Handi Rifle
    Win92
    Reloading manuals are usually divided into three categories for the 45-70Govt. 1.Trapdoor 2. Marlin1895 lever action,and 3. RUGER #1.
    Load as per the Marlin 1895 and you will be ok. --- SAWMAN

    Sawman, did you forget to list the Winchester 1886 ?
    I have a Perdoselli Winchester 1886/71
    .45-70 and while I have no intention of making it a .458 Winchester Magnum, it is rated as a very strong action. It is also chambered in the .45-90.
