I'm looking around for some loading data for use in a .40-70 SS, based on the Hornady .405 brass (trimmed & sized to 2.5"), to be used in a C. Sharps 1877 JP Lower Sporting Rifle - just received from the factory. With an 28" Badger lightweight octagon barrel, it weighs in at 8 1/2 lbs.
Bullet weight is 350 grs, and desiring to use AA 5744 powder.
Any information is greatly appreciated.
