Can anyone point me to a source of reloading info for cast bullets in the .38-55? Only thing I've found so far is some "plinking" loads in an old Lyman manual..
Pedestal, What are you shooting them out of a 94? Bores vary a lot from 375 to 380. I got some Winshester factory that mic .376 but the bore on my Win94 LF is .379 and I can only get it to shoot well with .380 cast.

Yes, it's an old 94. I haven't slugged the bore, I guess I need to do that... I installed a Lyman Tang Sight, as I cannot see the "V" sights anymore. I had one box of "Imperial" (Canadian) jacketed ammo. It did not shoot them particularly well, about 6"... I'd really like to stay with cast, anyway.
