I have downloaded both .375 winchester and .30wcf with cast lead bullets down to around 1200fps or so. Not much more than a .22lr.
few years ago i ran across a winchester in the box fromt he 70's.
it had spent it's life in the box in a swamp cooled house here in phx. 100dollar bill, solid rust on the exterior, inside brand new.
it was beyong my skill set, but took it to a guy who got the rust and pits out and reblued it, except for the alloy reciever, wouldn't hols standard bluing, so he used one of those bake on enamel type paints on the reciever. Nice little rifle today.
I have a real fondness for these levers, and they are much underestimated.
