    Get a hold of @shooternz at the speeds you'll be achieving lead gas checked projectiles will work great.

    He'll have some very good quality gas checked cast lead projectiles that will be perfect for your rifle and perfect for the game animals you mentioned.

    I have the Rossi 92 16" stainless steel in 44 mag and out to 100m or so it's devastating.

    I have also been running Shooternz's cast gas checked 70gr lead projectiles in my Winchester 92 in 25-20wcf.
    7grs of W296 gets these projectiles humming along at about 1700fps.

    I've shot numerous goats with this load and it works real good.

    Systolic is also correct the Belmont magnum pistol powder is just repackaged W296, which is also Hodgen H110, but much cheaper and easier to find, in my neck of the woods at least.

    Cheers
    Pete
