yes i reload for my original 45-70 trapdoor.you have to load it according to book for right power load per chamber pressure..if buying ammo make sure its for trap doors,,the lever action winchesters uses a hotter load and its not safe..using a 400 grain bullet.powder#4198 book says safe max is 38 grains at 1457 fps..3031-54 gr at 1810ps...in a ruger single shot it can be loaded to 458 mag loads.
