Can anyone tell me if the 45-70 buffalo classic can be safely re-chambered to 450 marlin? My concern is pressure due to the length of the barrel. Thanks

You can't make it into a 450 Marlin because the 4570 has larger case dimensions.

You can however make it into a 45-90, 45-100, 45-110, 45-120 etc

Did you know you can send the reciever and forearm back to H&R and they will install a .450Marlin barrel on it for $78?
