Just remember that the Hornady LVR ammo is a shorter brass.
Starline makes good brass, but the 444's isn't always available.
My plinking load for my P, is from the Lyman 429650.
With my particular...

Somewhere around 2,727...:smile:

Would be interested in your results.

I agree as to the fact that 23.5 is a bit much.
I have a Marlin Cowboy with the 24" tube and 15.0 grs. of 2400 with either a 250 or 255 gr pill is quite accurate.
10.0 grs of Unique over a 240-245...

I have one in 35 Rem., it required a good cleaning when I first got it, gift from the FIL.
It now runs well and has accounting for a good many deer, the farthest was around 135-140 yds. one shot...

I've also used the CBC brass in 45 colt with no issue.

I've handled one of each the rifle and the carbine, both were smooth and priced at or just under 8 bills.
The cheapest Henry I've seen in 30-30 was $900.

I don't cast as much as I once did and do buy some pre cast from time to time and for a couple of cal. that I don't have molds for.
I've shot and shoot quite a bit of Missouri Bullet co. 180 gr...

I tried the Tac out in the 35 Rem. it did well.
Haven't tried it in anything else yet.

I have one of CVA's versions of that, very fun little shooter.
It's called the Squirrel rifle.

Another 41 fan here, have a 6.5" BH and a Henry.
Killed a doe quite a few years ago with the BH.
I think the deer know when I'm out and about with the Henry as I've never seen one while carrying...

Very well said. My father was a WWII and Korean War vet.
And yes, I'm surprised from time to time, but surely not to often.

That truly "should" have been his...

I have an old Savage M 170 pump that I got from the fil. It's in 35 Rem, and I have taken a number of deer with it over the years. Even though it is quick to get the next round in the chamber, I've...

I have never tried Universal in my entire reloading life, but have used a ton of Unique in all kinds of applications. This old Winchester likes this load pretty well....

I did not know that Winchester ever used the mirco-groove rifling I thought that was strictly a Marlin thing.
Here's what I shoot in the ole Henry of mine.
Lee 90343, 240 gr Smasher of Missouri...

What square butte said.

I'd say yes on the 35 & 444, most likely prior to most Big game hunting seasons.
As to the 45 70 I don't know as I don't shoot it.
But it has regained popularity over the past 30 or so years thanks...

Hard to say on just one...as I own at least one in 6 of the 10 listed.
And multiples in 4 of the 6...[emoji6][emoji1787] I tried but there are a couple that are listed are of no interest to me, but...

The 41 is a favorite of mine and was the cartridge that push me into reloading many years ago.
My first was a Ruger BH with the 6.5" barrel. Took a nice fat doe quite some years ago with a 210 swc...

Had a high school teacher that got tired of (probably students) taking his out.
He got a 35 gal. metal drum and filled it with large rocks.
A couple tried it and didn't fair well and it got around....
