Barkoff, it is a Wild West Guns Marlin Co-Pilot in 457 magnum. The 457 magnum is about a .10 longer than a 45-70. Power difference between it and a 45-70 is negligible. 1800 fps with a Alaska Bullet Works 405 grain bonded bullet is more than enough for plains game. http://wildwestguns.com/copilot.html I hunt, not to kill, but in order not to have played golf....
