I do that.
Of course, I load mine for a 1955 Target, a.k.a. a model 25-5.
My Smith shoots the 200-grain SWCs pretty well. I'll warn you, though, your Smith 1917 may not have sufficient depth of rifling to shoot those plain-base cast bullets with much accuracy. My Modelo 1937 didn't like my cast bullets at all, and I tried several profiles in 200 and 230 grains.
