    .44 Mag using Berry's

    I just purchased some Berry's 240 gr HPs. The bullets do not have a cannelure on them. My dies are for roll crimping. Do I need a taper crimp die to load these up, or will there be sufficient tension on the seat? I plan on using these in a Desert Eagle and a S&W 29. I'm aware of the...

    Calling out "Rembrandt"

    You posted this picture in one of the threads..... I'll assume this is your DE. How do you like the wood grips? Are they the ones you can order from MRI? They look great. Do they make holding the gun more difficult? Thanks, Gary

    Loading cast .44

    I recently ordered some of these.... http://www.pennbullets.com/44/44200rnfpbb.html I have not loaded .44 cast bullets before but have loaded jacketed for some time now. Can I load these using the very low end of jacketed data for the powder listed? I have an extensive list of powders that...

    Making 44 spl out of 44 mag

    I have a ton of 44 mag cases and would like to save a few bucks by trimming some mag cases down to special length. Has anyone found a good way to trim or cut them down? Should I just break down and spend $35 for a couple hundred cases? Any ideas? Thanks in advance

    Is anyone currently using one of these? http://www.midsouthshooterssupply.com/item.asp?sku=0000690107 Not the Auto Prime, this one sits on the press. I currently am using a Lyman Ram prime that works great, but its a little slow. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Gary
