Hey guys, just made a new venture into the lever action category. Bought a Marlin 1895SBL 45-70 Govt and have no experience reloading straight wall calibers. From my research it looks like IMR 3031 and 4198 appear to be the powder of choice. I would like to stick with 300 and maybe 350 grain bullets most likely JHP. Any suggestions as to what dies I need to pick up, I'm think of doing the crimp in a separate step with the Lee Factory Crimp die. Any help is greatly appreciated.
