I took my Marlin .45/70 into my favorite custom shop about 3 years ago and had them shorten the barrell to 12 inches in shorten the loading tube to the same, I get almost the same muzzle velocity and it's a nice short size. Little bit less accurate out past 50 meters but then... it's .45/70 so I never used it for long shots anyway. nothings beats 500 grain flat noses.
