Holy carp! The only 45-70 I've shot was in a lightweight rifle with thin stock and brass butt plate. Modern, strong action and hot smokeless handloads. Belonged to a friend of mine. My shoulder was already a bit tender from firing a 7mm magnum literally all day when my friend dips into the trunk of the car and says, here, try this...
I can't even imagine that round in a revolver so my hat is off to you...

John...it's really not that bad. Here I was doing some draw shots after cutting the barrel down.
Those Hornady 325 gr. rounds were still going 1460 FPS out the shorter barrel and these are factory mild loads.

If you run out of ammo it would still be effective as a club for close in fighting! 
Nice looking gun!

Was that "oh s*^%!" at the end from the recoil or a hammer bite?
Too much for my arthritis ridden hands ps

I wear a heavy glove when shooting my BFR's. Just a suggestion.
