What would the loading level be for the CVA Scout V2 rifle - Trapdoor, Marlin or Ruger 1? Thanks...

Since the rifle comes in modern high intensity cartridges (7-08) I would think that it would be safe in 45-70 with at least Marlin level loads. I am pretty sure it would be quite a handful and would not load a 5 1/2 lb. rifle that stout.
You'll give up before the rifle does. Keep the loads light so as to not injure yourself.
