Another beauty inbound.

Well I'm bored today, and curious, so I did some digging. You're into well heeled territory here, but I'd give these guys a call and see what they come up with if you really want it. Either that or figure out the 9.3x74R conversion. For light hunting or target shooting, a .41 Mag bullet will likely suffice once you have the brass. https://hendershots.net/product/405-winchester-extreme-custom-ammo/

Well she is back from surgery. She got drilled and tapped for new Skinner sights. They aging eyes are ok with buckhorns, but not like they use to be. Out to the range soon. Will include pictures.

Looks like this

Did see some brass on gunbroker two days ago, $4.00 a piece.

I eventually want to grab one of those Russian military 7.62x54R ones. That'd be a good find.

I’ve been ruminating on one of those. Old buddy inherited one in 30/06. I looked hard at one in 3040 Krag. Really would like one in 405 but have a hard enough time finding 300 HH brass.

Got a brand new Winchester 1895 and 405 Winchester coming in. I always wanted one ......imagine that...... because of Teddy Roosevelt, he shot lions and rhino on it back in the early 1900s now if I can find some ammunition and some brass would be great.

look up Gary Reader, done a bunch of work with 405 brass necked down, his line of cartridges was the GNR. perhaps if he is still in business he may sell brass

I like Skinner Sights on lever guns. I have to ask, the picture in your initial post shows that the rifle is factory drilled and tapped for receiver sights. Why not look for a receiver mounted Lyman 48 or Williams 5D instead of drilling and taping for the Skinner?

Gunbroker again; 991600901, $4.00 a piece. FYI

I like the skinners better more compact per se
