Exactly...

I have only found one bullet/load that both my Ruger SBH and Micro-Groove 1894 like, and that is 22gr of H110 under a Hornady 265gr FP (.430")...

I can load for either all day with cast, but not the same diameter bullet...

Other than that, I'd just as soon replace the CBS with an aftermarket saddle-ring...

Sadly, 'technically' the gun belongs to SWMBO...
