I've come into probably 700-1000 (literally) cast lead bullets that are .429 and .431 diameter. Most are already lubed and gas checked, various weights also. I load a lot of 9mm, 45acp, and rifle calibers but have never loaded this caliber.
My questions are:
These are for 44 mag correct?
Why would I use the .429 instead of .431 and vice versa?
I don't own a firearm that shoots this caliber, what would be a good platform to start with? Probably for target shooting and deer/hog hunting. Ruger blackhawk/redhawk?
Looks like all I need to get started is a firearm, some brass and a set of dies.
Any input would be appreciated.
