Finally sit up my 100 yd. gong. So I now able to break out my Model 1871 Wesson&Harrington. Beautiful rifle, bought it as a used rifle because the fellow that order it was disappointed in the wood work, wood to metal in a couple places doesn't meet properly. But I would have to point it out for you to notice.
The problem I had is , I have two different brands of ammo, Ultramax .38/55, 245 gr.,round nose and flat point.Winchester Super X .38/55 Winchester,255 gr.,soft point.(I think I see the answer to my problem already)
The Ultramax would not fit but the Winchester fit fine.The difference was the Winchester had a crimp about an inch below the bullet while the Ultramax didn't . Checking the case they both have W-W,38-55 Win.
So the answer is yes their is a difference between .38/55 and .38/55 Winchester. Is their anything else I should be aware of with this round. Thanks .
