I bought this mold for my 44 mag and I can NOT for the life of me find reloading data. I want to use this load as a plinker and do not want to load it real hot. I would prefer to use 231 or HP-38 if you have any loads for that powder, but I will do with what I get. Any help at all would be great!!

Any data for the 429421 would work fine. 4 gr. of Bullseye in the 44 Special case or 7 gr. of Green Dot in the 44 Mag case will get you where you want. Take care to size it to your cylinder throat dimensions or 0.0005" larger.

I am guessing around 7-7.5 gn's of 231 would be safe but I can't be too sure......

Any lead boolit data for the same or similar weight will be just fine.

Can always use loads recommended for next boolit up in weight. That way will know won't be as hot as any bullet of lesser weight.

6.0 of 231 was reccomended a long time ago.
