Anyway the carbine butt plate is easier on the shoulder.

These are very mild loads. 45 Colt or 44-40. Even at the bench, it should not hurt. When I bought my 45-70 Sharps, that was a different story, I bought one with a shotgun style buttstock. But a levergun chambered for 45 Colt or 44-40 should not hurt, even with a crescent butt plate. Rearrange yourself so the butt is encircling the shoulder joint, keep it off of your shoulder.
