Sharps / .45-70 ???'s

Would you consider the Sharps, or Sprinfield model 1873, or any of the "trapdoor" rifles a blackpowder rifle?
It uses a cartridge after all.

Well the forum is titled" Black powder " not M/L so if your shooting Black or BPCR yes . Yes I think it would be ok . Might be more talkitive in reloading .

Yes. These rifles are a progression from Front stuffer to cartridge rifle. Many of the front stuffer's were converted to these early cartridge rifles. They are all time period rifles. Tom.
