Hi all,
I have received a set of Lee Dies and this mold for .44 Remington Mag for Christmas:
TL430-240-SWC
I currently have Bullseye powder on hand from loading .45 ACP.
I am using Lee Alox Lube.
Bullets are cast from Wheel Weight.
The Alliant Powder web site gives this recipe for a 240 grain cast lead semi wadcutter:
http://www.alliantpowder.com/reloaders/recipedetail.aspx?gtypeid=1&weight=240&shellid=33&bulletid=52
Minimum OAL(inches): 1.605
Barrel Length: 7.5
Primer CCI: 300
Powder: Bullseye
Charge Weight (grains): 6
Velocity (fps): 894
I will be shooting these out of a S&W Model 629.
Does this sound like an appropriate load?
Thanks,
Steve
