great for reduced loads in an old 1894

Used these to get an old 1915 Win 1894 SRC with quite a history and a very worn and pitted barrel shooting again. I think the .311 diameter did the trick. Tried reduced loads of Unique, 5744, and Trail Boss, used the Lyman cast handbook as a rough guide. The old saddle gun was able to put 5 of these bullets into 2.5 inches at 50 yards. Treats the barrel the way an old worn out one needs to be treated. Not trying to make a magnum out of it. Doesn't seem to lead the bore much, bore actually looked a lot better after shooting these and running a patch through it.
