So I'm loading for my 1895sbl. I've got a bunch of hornady's 325.ftx bullets and ive had some success with h4198 (45.9 g and my shoulder says they're hotter that the factory rounds) butter zone groups and an inch or so above factory out to about 150 yds. But I'm told I should use h322. Figured I'd give it a shot. So Hodgdon's site lists a load with h322 to a max of 2250fps with a 24 inch barrel. Call it 2075 in my stubby silver gg. Problem is they list the cartridge trim at 2.10 rather than 2.040. I believe it is a typo. I shot an email to Hodgdon and I'm waiting a response. Any thoughts?
2.10" was the standard 45/70 case length from when it was designed/put into US military service in 1873 (or thereabouts).
It still is the recognized case length, except for Hornady's newish 'Zombie' (or whatever trendy name they call it) ammunition.
Yes. Le brass is shorter. By .060 problem is Hodgdon lists their load data for the 325g ftx - the leverevolution bullet - as being loaded in standard length brass. Hence my belief this is a typo.
Hodgdon typo?
