The big question being bullet weight.  The lighter weight ones shoot well in original 28-30s with their relatively slow twists.  I have a 175 grain 287221.  Will not stabilize (too long) in a Stevens 28-30.  Shoulder on front of bullet keeps it from chambering in an old Remington No. 5 in 7x57.  I'd leave the long ones alone.  Collectors item only.
