I shoot a Moose 400 grain Smith/Maynard bullet sized from .520" to .518" in my original Smith. 28 grains of GOEX 3F. I use MCM lube and plastic tubes with a hollow brass rivet in the flash hole to prevent the flash hole from deteriorating and getting larger. I find the 400 grain bullet stabilizes better and is excellent at 100 yards.
