Have you ever wonder how a Berdan II with a magazine looks like? Here’s the Remington–Lee rifle, a bolt-action rifle with a five-round detachable box magazine. It was designed by James Paris Lee in the mid-1870s.It was chambered in .45-70(11.6×53mmR) except for the M1899( .30-40 Krag).
The rate of fire is also very impressive, and you can still keep in aiming position while firing this rifle, but that would be too overpower, so giving it a good rate of fire is just enough(69-72).

Barrel length:32.5inch(825.5 mm)
Caliber:.45-70(11.6×53mmR)
Ammo capacity:5-round detachable box magazine + 1round in the chamber

This rifle has high damage , fast reloading time and good rate of fire, it surely would be a good option as BP weapons.
Do you want America to get this powerful rifle as BP weapons?

- Nope
Do you want this rifle have the same ability as the Lee-Enfield or straight pull rifle?
- Yes, I want to keep aiming while using this rifle.
