I like my 45-70's and for high power rounds you will need to reload,I have had case head seperations on some of my hot loads after being reloaded a few times and cant help but wonder if the 450 cartridge would help with this as the 45-70 case isn't very stout.I'd hate to be in a bind and have half a case stuck in my chamber.
