I'm ordering my first batch of reloading supplies, and I need some help picking which bullet to use for my .44 mag reloading. I'll be loading for target shooting from 100-200 yards with an 8 3/8" 629. I'd prefer something 240gr, and it will be loaded in Federal brass with H110 powder. Price is somewhat of a concern, as well - I'd like to keep it around $125/1000 or lower. So what's out there that can be pushed fast with minimal leading and has good accuracy?
Also, a side question - when looking around at bullets, I've found .44 bullets ranging in diameter from .427 to .431 - would being off nominal by .002 one way or the other be good or bad, or should I just try to find .429?
Thanks for your help.
