Have a Ruger No. 1 on the end of my line, and am wondering about feeding it lead. Anyone casting for this cartridge? I know you can use .41 Mag bullets, but I am wondering about heavier stuff. Seems like it ought to make a good cast bullet rifle -- being essentially a Tropical in a smokeless version of .40-70 Sharps Straight.

Lyman lists several from 240 gr ( I use in my 41 mag, not my mold ) to 400 gr that are the right size for the .405 Win

Hope this helps
