Is anyone aware of a source of load data besides that found in Cartridges Of The World?

Do you have knowledge of more than one Saint-Étienne Model 1892 hand gun?

Ordanance revolver, model of 1892 better known as the "lebel"

I have some data that I have scrubbed up through the years, I'll have to look.

I also had a mold made that is a near exact copy of the original bullet that I can make up for a reasonable price if you're interested.

9363993640

Original and re-pro.

If anyone needs some they can PM me, or e-mail at Dschuttig (at symbol) yahoo (dot) com

I have a 120g heeled bullet for the 310 greener that works very well over 3g off unique in my old Lebel.

Model 1892 ordnance revolver. I have one.

These are pretty cool old revolvers..cylinder swings to the right..has about three moving parts inside...side-plate swivels open so you can look at the simplicity of it all

And all the internals are designed to not get lost when you're washing it. Actually some well executed engineering.
I'm using a 111 grain WFN that LBT made a while back, 1991-1992. My first log for it is dated in '92 so it couldn't have been before '91. Best results recorded were with Bullseye. Thinking about trying Trail Boss and Blackhorn 209.
Anybody got other load data?
