I read that you are getting a lot of compression with 60 grains of 3F Swiss, Not knowing what a "lot of Compression" means I have to ask if you are using a compression die only or are you also using a drop tube as well.
I use 65 grains of 2F Swiss behind a 535 grain Paul Jones bullet 20-1 Federal mag primer and a .030 Walters wad with a newspaper disc between the bullet and wad. and I have .160 compression using a 24 inch drop tube with the overall cartridge lenght at 2.70. I use fireformed Winchester brass neck sized only with a slight bell no crimp in fact I leave the bell as it helps center the case in the chamber, at least thats what the experts tell me....it does work for me.
I am loading for a Shiloh Sharps 45-70 altho the same basic principles apply to the Browning 40-65 I also load for.
I use a slug cut the same length as the bullet and set the powder at the correct depth with a standard seating die. then you know there is no air gap between the powder and bullet and you also will have the overall lenght set as well, plus you do not have to use the bullet to compress the powder and take a chance of bumping up the diameter of the bullet. I seat the bullet with a Redding comp die.
The Lyman bullet is very close to the PJ bullet in shape and weight, I used the Lyman before I got the Paul Jones mould and this method has worked very well for me,
If you don't mind me suggesting you might use a 24 inch or 30 inch drop tube and you will find the powder settles a lot lower and more even and you do not get the crush on the top powder grains. I have found accuracy improved as well for the rifles I shoot
.
This has process has worked very well for me, of course every rifle requires something a little different, hope this helps.
