I have recently bought a Lee mold for casting lead bullets C430-310-rf. I have been told that the 444marlin should use 432 bullets to shoot accurately.
So should i get a custom sizer in .432 and use bullet bumping to get .432 bullets? Or should i buy a new mold like this one: http://mp-molds.com/shopping/pgm-more_information.php?id=3&=SID That is known to work in 444 marlin micro grooves?
 
Slug your barrel. I slugged my Marlin .44 and it measured .429". It shoots bullets sized to .430" perfectly.
 
Also keep in mind that molds often produce bullets slightly larger than advertised, so your mold may be OK. Cast a few bullets and see where they are at before buying another mold.
