45-70 load

[Kinsman]

None of my books show a 45-70 loading for the 405 gr jacketed bullets. They do for 350 and 400 gr.
Anyone have a good load for the 1895cb?
Thanks

You can use the 400 grain data you have.

I have an old accuracy load for the 405 grain jacketed bullet listed as: IMR 3031, 38.5 grains, 1312 fps, Win Large Rifle primers, COAL= 2.550" I used a very slight roll crimp on the mouth of the case to hold it snug.

Good luck.
