I have owned two Marlins in 45-70. One was ported guide gun, the other was 1895 CB. I still own the 1895 and made my own loads for it that are manageable and fun to shoot. 400 gr flat nose cast bullet and 25 grs AA-5744. I get 1280fps with that load and recoil is not bad.
I will probably draw some fire over this but the Guide Gun was no fun to shoot and a piece of garbage.
