Win 94 Trapper 44 mag handloading

OK so now I bought this thing , anyone have some words of advice on handloading for it ?
Does it digest semi-wadcutters , how about 300 gr and up bullets?
Does it twist heavy or light bullets better?
Any words of wisdom or tricks I should know?

Mine for example is oversize at .410 which allows me to use 41 mag bullets. Resizing 45-70 brass can be a problem because 40-65 brass/chambers are a few thousandths big...
