Looking at operating pressures for Buffalo Bore ammo, and their statement stating their loads are safe for any modern style rifles in smokeless. I wouldn't use Buffalo Bore's ammo as really safe! Their .38-55 ammo operates at higher specs than SAAMI max for the .38-55 ammo.


Maybe the key words in his advertising are  "" modern style ""
The 1874 Sharps is not a modern style.

Actually for their +P 45-70 ammo they state the rifles explicitly. 

" ALL falling block actions made of modern steel such as the Ruger #1 and #3, Shiloh, Christian and Pedersoli Sharps...."

But, like I mentioned, I only shoot black powder in mine.  Smiley
