Good evening, I'm just starting to reload. I have recently received a savage model 1899 or 99 cambered in .32-40 from my grandfather. I was looking for some reloading help. I have taken the rifle to a gunsmith and they have informed me it is safe to shoot. Lucky me!!!
I have seen seen on various sites people have mentioned using Unique powder, I do not have any of that but have found some IMR 4227. At this point that is all that I have. I thought boolit weights were in the 165 to 185 grain amounts for this rifle.
I would take and help and suggestions to get me going. I'm looking forward to shooting this old family rifle.
Thank you
