I load for it to shoot out of a repro Iver Johnson. I had a lot of trouble finding brass when I got the rifle. I tend to just buy factory Monarch brass ammo. I recover as much as I can find of it. I save them up. Then I reload them. I have about a 15% disappearance rate with brass. I never counted how many times I have reloaded any of the cases. I loose them before they need trimming anyway. I do measure them after sizing.

Also spray lube works fine with them as long as you follow directions. I use the Cabella's lanolin based stuff. Though I let it sit for at least an hour before I use it. I tumble the finished rounds to remove the case lube.

For powder I would suggest AA#9 if you can get it. If not H110/Win 296 work well also. Be careful as the load weight range is a very narrow one.
