Ok, lets hear it. Whats your most accurate 44 magnum load?
So far ive got best success with WIN 231 in the 7.0 grains range using 240GR LSWC hard cast bullets, about 17 on Brinell hardness. Light load and a tack driver. Very clean burning.
Id say this load produces energies in 45 colt or hot 44 spl territory, but not looking for power factor with this load.
My most accurate load in the more "magnum" class is either 18.5 grains of 2400 with the same LSWC listed above, or 23.5 grains of WW296 pushing a Sierra 240 grain JHP or 240grain Hornady XTP. All above using WW LP primers.
All loads turn out to be at 1.600 OAL.
Firearms include:
S&W 29-2 8-3/8" Nickel
Dan Wesson 744. 6" SS
