I have a new Winchester 1895 in 30-40 on order and I want to get a new mold for it.
Pointed bullets will not be a problem. I already have a Lee mold that throws 173gr
bullets and it works ok in my Krag carbine.

I had a old 1895 in 30/40 some years back. It loved the 311299 as well as the Lyman 311291.

My old 1895 .30 Army has a terrible bore and won't shoot many bullets, jacketed or cast. The cast it shoots best is a discontinued Saeco that resembles the Lyman 311284.
