+1 on the Lyman book. An excellent primer.
Before doing anything though, I would slug the bore of your rifle to determine groove diameter. Optimal plain base cast bullet performance in a rifle almost demands its diameter be a couple thousandths over that dimension. (They'll work if undersized, but accuracy may suffer as well as probably induce leading. One way to find out.)
