I'm guessin you have a S&W 296 or 396 ?

Nope, 4" 29-2.

throwing a switch and looking at the bullets out of a airfeed star lube sizer
high tech eh??

There is more to it that of course, but I understand your point.

Does anybody know of a distributor who stocks the Magnus 215s?

My guy here in town says he can order them so I guess someone local could get them for you. Most any well cast (technique/QC.. ) bullet will shoot well. If they use good alloy, keep temps good, run production at the right speeds, etc. they will put out good bullets.

Try a couple of cheap locally available bullets and I bet you find one that shoots well in your gun.

Unfortunately, I actually want a SPECIFIC type and weight of bullet, so that course of action doesn't meet my needs.

Damn, I thought I was picky.

I guess I have mellowed a lot. I used to be serious picky.

It drove folks around me nuts. I told them they just had to put up with me once in a while, I had to put up with me all the time.

I've got specific things I want to accomplish and cowboy bullets won't get them done. I'll probably be using one or both of my 29-2 for local competition. I need to cut clean holes. Flat points have never done that for me.

Maybe if you slowed these down the 185gr WC's enough you would have your same POI and a clean hole; http://www.pennbullets.com/44/44-caliber.html

I've been thinking about some of these. I like his bullets and he's a good guy to deal with. I recently bought several boxes of 240gr. LSWCs from him, just so I'd have SOMETHING to load.

I ordered 500 of the Penn 185 WC bullets to try. I bet they work real well. We will see.

Flite Line Bullets offers a 200gr SWC-BB bullet on their web site. You might also try one of their 185gr full wadcutter bullets.
