Yep

Common 45/70 load data and 50cal MLs can produce similar velocities. The Savage can easily exceed a 45/70 except for maybe Ruger #1 load data. The 458-325gr FTX is a good choice if you want a higher BC and still get reliable expansion down to about 1300fps.

Retained about 250gr

It will rock you a little bit too though.
