Which do you guys prefer? The .444 or the .45-70? These are both single shot rifles used to deer hunt, so which one would you prefer to hunt with?
These come in lever action guns too, and that's more what I've seen folks using, with regards to elk and whatnot. I know you are more interested in primative weapons season in La though.
You are really going to be splitting hairs with regards to anything in Louisiana that you would shoot with these two. The .45-70 will probably be easier to find ammo for, and it typicall throws heavier bullets than the .444. There's probably more handloading data to be had for a .45-70 as well. Recoil might be a little less with a .444, but its still a hoss.
