Just worked up to a charge of 24 grains of h-110 for my .44 shooting 263 grain SWC out of my Super Redhawk (7.5" barrel). No pressure signs and is yielding 2" at 50 yds. Any idea of appox. velocity for such a recipe?

Thanks.

Is hauling butt a scientific term?:mrgreen:

upon edit, are you getting any leading?

I've chronographed a very similar load in my 7.5" Redhawk. Felix is right on.

Thanks guys, leading isn't an issue since they are cast hard with checks. Now if I can just get something black and furry to hold still within 50yds. next week :)
