Naturally I agree with WIN1886. This is a forum including lever action and I don't think there is any reason to fear them. Perhaps new shooters could be intimidated by the size of the round, but shooting 300 grain 45-70's out of a present day Marlin just does not equal the shoulder pain experienced with some other rifles & ammo in my book. I think some of my 30-06 rounds hit the shoulder harder than a 45-70. And at the risk of crossing over, some of the light handguns or even some of the 44 magnum handguns can give a person a sharper jolt than a 45-70 lever action rifle.
