I use 6.0 gr Unique with both 124 gr cast and jacketed bullets, and 6.3 gr with 115 gr jacketed bullets. An excellent load is 8.0 gr Blue Dot with any of the above bullets. These are maximum loads.

Pressures will run slightly higher with lead bullets as opposed to jacketed bullets due to better obturation of the softer lead bullet in the bore. This could cause the action to work with the lead bullets and not the jacketed bullets in the same load when the loading is marginal for operating pressure.
