Planning to try this using some 180 and 200 gr. bullets I have. Hoping to take the sting out of practice with my .44 Mag Contender. I've pretty much gone full-power 240 gr. for my revolvers and 1894 Marlin, but those loads aren't fun in the 10" Contender.
I don't have any .44 Spcl brass, but figure the magnum brass will have the advantage of preventing a crud ring in the chamber. The only question is whether the larger case volume will cause problems.
Is anyone doing this? Is there anything I should watch out for? I see 44 Spcl loads with everything from Bullseye and Red Dot to 2400. Any powders in this range to avoid?
