Hello all.

Been presented with an opportunity to aquire a 1889 Schmitt Ruben. This will be my first Swissicon rifle.

From doing some reading, I gathered that this will be a home load adventure. I already reload for vintage military rifles,however this one is by far the oldest!

So think using cast bullets will be the way forward, this will be new to me also. Can you use modern jacketed bullets?

Looking for any advice/loads anyone may have for this rifle.

Thanks!
