You guys are killin me! You're causing deep feelings of regret within me about trading my Browning away so many years ago and that's a double edged blade as the gun I received in trade is a gun I doubt I'll ever part with. I've longed for another 45-70 almost as long as I've been without. Spitpatch had a NIB version that I drooled over for quite a while and now another friend has a Ruger #1 for a very reasonable price.
This is the what I had and it looked even better in person. That's a Leupold 4x on it. Kurt at H&K Guns throated it so I could seat the bullets long and I started filling cases up with powder.

Nice toes, huh?
A falling-block in .458 American? I'll take it!
