[QUOTE="Ryan500L, post: 3659928, member: 41839"] I think it would take a bigger stronger action than the 1895, the 45/70 is a pretty low pressure round so you can get away with a bit more pressure in the 1895 but I don't think it's anywhere close to strong enough for a Lott. Some guys get away with hot loads that get close to the Win mag in them but I wouldn't do it. I can't remember for sure but I think some guys converted some to .500 Smith and they blew up. And it's just a handgun round! [/QUOTE]
