38-70 bullet we shoot is groove-less but hot dipped in a special lube...dunno the formula for it... Wt is 172 gr. Mould made by Paul Jones...best mould maker I know of and perfect concentricity. 38/70 is an original old cartridge but only ever chambered in the Win 1886 and only for a few years. Case is slightly necked down 45/90 and trimmed a bit. BBL. custom made by Dan Lilja. I'll take a pic of a round later and post it here
