I have a box of cast bullets that are in the weight of 119gr, it is intended for the .30 carbine so it is rather short.. My 47th lyman's does not have this weight for the carbine so.. At any rate, the closest in .30-30 that I have is 110gr for jacketed, not lead data. I am planning on using this with Unique as I have used with other cast bullets (160 to 175gr) So.. Any info would be appreciated.. Thanks!
 
I use 16.0 grns of 2400 with a Lyman 311041 (173 grn) lead bullet, and it is mild and accurate. I would say about 14 grns 2400 would do great under a 119 grn bullet. Nowhere near max, but not underpowered.
