Welcome from Micanopy Florida. I can't answer your question. My suggestion is that you ask it again in the collectors forum to get a faster response.

From my research the 1893 had smokless and BP only - as marked on their rifles. The 1894 SAFETY was made for smokeless. So, I should be good to go - going to start with a light low pressure load and see how she works. Any pet loads for 100 year old rifles out there?
