This doe was only about 15y away, I was in a stand above her and the ground was pretty soft. 405gr cast went through the doe, into the mud and I made an attempt finding the bullet, kept digging but never got deep enough.

Rolling blocks are single shots, and were Remington's answer to the Springfield trapdoor.

What pressure ratings did you find????? I've been shooting level 2(marlin loads) out it some, mostly trapdoor loads though.

Searched Baikal 45-70 pressure . Says gun is rated 2200 bar which is 32000 psi . Trap door loads are 28000 psi which is ok for Baikal . Next step up is Marlin 1895, encore, ruger 1,browning 1885, 35000 psi = +p . As in Hornady or buffalo bore ammo.
