opps didn't see that Wajim beat me to that guess.

I own a few so hope I get this one right.
B. 45-70-405 Government
45 caliber lead bullet weighing 405 grains with 70 grains of blackpowder.
The later cavalry load for the carbines was a bit lower IIRC.
The load for the two mile Sandy Hook test in 1879 was a bit higher (45-85). Good read.

Logical answer would be 45-55 because Guntrader tip his hand..............

And IIRC 30wcf wasn't introduced until the Win 94.
