Something to note for those who haven't seen one in person. The laminated stock is very thick in the forend and pistol grip and it's kind of heavy.
Not a criticism of the rifle, it balances well and I think that thickness and weight are an advantage in the .45-70 as they give you something to hold onto and will mitigate the recoil a bit.
The local Sportsman's Warehouse has one in .45-70 and also a 336BL model in .30-30. The .30-30 model definitely seems overly heavy for what I thought it was going to be, a fast handling lightweight model.
Still like this configuration a lot. In my experience this method of magazine attachment really helps with accuracy or at least makes it real easy to tweak for accuracy.
Gunnery, gunnery, gunnery.
Hit the target, all else is twaddle!
