I only have w-w brass and some Norma,use fed215s not their match and cci-250 very good best pet load is RL-25, 67.5 grns with a 140 horn bt 3 rds= 3/8 inch 3175 from 24 inch bbl your 28 would add 100 fps more . Pretty sure it was w-w brass have to check my notes .

I don't know primers, probably Winchester but now days I wouldn't bet on it. May be federal. 1st outing w/new to me 1885. Velocity should be good. The load could go up some. Not sure if I want to push brass w/it so hard to obtain(& price). I paid $128 for 40 rounds of win. 140gr. Copper impact. Do you know( a guess about) when brass last available from WW or norma? Hope they will make a run again soon.
