Big_BlueRe: Fired 45-70 with added weight
I got some weight in my BC today, using 3/4" copper pipe filled with lead. It fits in the stock hollow perfectly. I added some cold working compound to the butt end, to stop the rattle. It should make a great difference in recoil. I have to find a calculator for recoil, and weigh the gun so I can see the difference in recoil ft. lbs.

Big_BlueJPH45,
That kink you posted won't allow me to access it. I weighed the rifle tonight and I have between 10-11 pounds now. A nice balance between the barrel and the stock now to.
