Does anyone have a source for loading data for a 50-110 Winchester Express ? I have purchased an 1886 Carbine with a 22" barrel from a friends estate and would like to use it.

Welcome to the forum.
I would be looking in both Lyman manuals, the regular one and Cast Bullets Handbook, and I would be "Search"ing next door at Cast Boolits. I think you'l find someone over there who has some experience with it.

Thanks , I have looked at several lyman books but it seems each one has data for a different old cartridge. As of yet I have not found my load, I was hoping someone might direct me to the correct edition. I will try the boolits site. Thanks
