I have decided that I want a 35-30 conversion. Im not sure if I want to convert my current 1894 winchester, or purchase another one and convert it. I dont know when I'll be going through with it... But its been on my mind a while. I have some questions in regards to this neat old wildcat.
Does it use projectiles intended for the 35 remington? Will the cannelure hit where its supposed to?
Can anyone recommend a good mould to be looking for?
I found JES http://www.35caliber.com/index.html upon doing some research. Is there anyone else that others might recommend me looking into for the conversion?
JES lists groove diameter on his conversion as .359, not a problem for cast, but for jacketed... .358 is the standard.
What can I expect with a .001 undersized jacketed bullet? Will it foul more than normal? Will accuracy be acceptable out to the practical range of the gun? 200-225 yards max.
Anyone have any other info or links in regards to the 35-30 conversion.
Thanks
