Mark. You are about to have a lot of fun. 4198 is a good choice for powder. I am using 5/8" backer rod on top of my powder charge. I had to change sights on mine the Uberti sights just didn't work for me. My bullets cast at 350grs.(if I remember correctly).

Default black powder and jacketed bullets

Has anyone ever used black powder and jacketed bullets together? my point is the black is for not overloading the 1876 Winchester, the jacketed bullets for game.. plus I have a hoard of them..

Winchester cataloged quite a few cartridges that were loaded with black powder and 'metal patched' bullets.
