Just go with the .411 Hawk, which was developed for use in the 1895. It is what you are asking about.

Some good info here...
I don’t see why you can’t get the 405 Win loaded like crshelton to get the desired velocity out of a modern 1895. I would just want to cross section the case first or have a special batch made with a stronger case head from this company https://www.rccbrass.com/
