I have recently obtained a fine old Winchester 1894 chambered in .25-35.
Unfortunately, both projectiles and load data for this old smokepole seem limited. I acquired a small supply of the now discontinued 117 grain jacketed bullets for reloading, but I want to save those for occasions when I might use them in a hunting application.
For just target shooting or pest control, the only cast boolits I could find were for the .25-20. 86 grain flat points, no GC.
And now...I have no idea how to load them.
Does anyone have any load data or experience with loading these up to say, 1800 fps (or, even more if you have had success)?
Thanks!
