When I got my Henry H010 45-70, I ordered some Cast Performance 405 grain WLN-GC and found they were too long to feed from the magazine. I had some brass from Hornady 325 gr FTX LeveRevolution ammo that came with the gun. This brass is slightly shorter than normal 45-70 brass. I found I could load the Cast Performance bullets in the short Hornady brass, and it was just enough shorter to allow the WLN-GC bullets to cycle from the magazine. I use 45.7 grains of 3031 and the load is very accurate.
That's a good load and same I use sometimes in the standard case.
