    I have an early Win 375 BB. Have not used it in years but I remember to bore to be .377. I used the 'modern' 38-55 brass that was in between the old 38-55 and the 375 lenghts. I did a chamber cast...

    I had a winchester 1895 in 30US (30-40 krag). Can't remember when it was made but the bore had seen better days. I had good luck with the lyman 314299 @ .312. I've since sold it to a friend who...

    I'd check your throat / bore. If it's anything like my 340, .312s would be perfect. If you do decide on smaller, lube them first @.312 then go smaller. Keeps the grooves from collapsing.

    I think I would try pouring a bit more lead a bit longer. That will make sure the plate stays hot. Not as neat and you pour back more lead but good bullets are more important that tidy sprues.
