I wanted a 45.70 until my buddy told me about his experienced at the range. He was sighting in his .444 and next to him was a guy sighting in a 45.70. They each shot the other's rifle to experience the difference. He said that the 45.70 gave more of a "slow-solid" recoil, kind a a thud, while the .444 was a "sharp-solid" kick, if that makes any sense at all. Both agreed the .444 was a more "pleasant" shooting experience. As for ballistics, the .444 is a bit flatter shooting, giving a bit more distance. I've come around to the .444.
ETA: Of course, the 45.70 sledge hammer effect at 100 yards and in gives me wood.

I'm doing the same thing, except I want a .45-70
I've been thinking the same!
