Re: Puma 92 in 454 or Marlin in 45-70?

I have both, 2 Marlin 45-70's (the CB and the SS) and a Puma 454. The puma kicked like a mule when I first bought it, but after replacing the rock hard recoil pad with a kick Ezz pad it was tamed down to a very manageable level. Either one will work out to a hundred yards with no problem the 45-70 w...

Now if they were to chamber them in 32-40, 25-35, or 38-55 I would be intrested buying a couple. I too would prefer having winchester 94's in those calibers but my pockets are not that deep, so I will settle for Italian shooters for 600-800 a piece if they ever chamber them in those calibers.
