[QUOTE="Hooker, post: 822248, member: 5819"] Siamese Mauser in 45/70 all though this would be a custom. This action is strong enough to handle the 45/70 at max, which will put it about 100 fps slower than the 458 win mag. The 45/70 is not really a short range cartridge it more than capable of cleanly taking deer at 300 yards. I have made that shot twice with my Marlin 1895ss. There are a few bolt actions in 30/30 around Stevens ,Savage and Remington all made bolt guns in this cartridge. Just what is it that you are shooting now that be to much for hunting in Oklahoma. I deer hunted for years with an older feller who used a 375 it got the job done very well. We have guys at our camp that use the 7 mag and 300 ultra mag both work well as a deer round. Heck they are all short range if you slip up close to the target be for you shoot:D Pat [/QUOTE]
