Well it has the caliber listed in rimfire..So to shoot 45-70 it would have to be converted to center fire..probably have to be rebarrelled too as the chamber is larger in diameter than a 45-70.. Just my old recollection. If the price is right..it would be a neat purchase..A friend in Md was given a Rolling Block and lo and behold..after cleaning the bore and chamber..it was a 45-70. He has shot it quite a few time..Scum suckin pig was also given a High Wall in a Sharps cartridge..but don't remember the caliber. Get it and have fun Mr 16
