I like wide meplats for hunting bullets, that's why I asked about your plans. I think the 311041 will serve you well. Somebody's bound to come along and tell you the 311291 isn't safe in a tubular magazine but I won't go there. Be sure you clean the bore good to get all that copper out.
311291 is an old classic and I may try it in my 30-06 if the 311041 doesn't work out.
NOE did a run of 311041 moulds late last year with an improved 311041, had a fatter nose. May be able to find one of them. Ranch Dog also had a mould designed with your 94 in mind but I was working with a 336 at the time.
