Looked for 44 AMP brass, found some (supposedly) at Grafs. Added the Speer #9 357 and 44 AMP pages. Added the article Feeding the .44 Auto Mag by George Nonte.
Outdated link - I hate URLs with spaces.

Need help with the following:
Looking for a copy of American Reloaders Association (ARA) Bulletin Feb 1969 #66 .44/357 Bain & Davis , if anyone has it, I would love a PDF.
Scans from P.O Ackleys Handbook for Shooters and Reloaders would be good.
A scan of the G&A "Big Bore Handguns", date unknown, would be sweet.

Unleash the hounds of 357/44 (Bain and Davis)! American Rifleman, April 1970
http://smith-wessonforum.com/reloadi...ain-davis.html
"Aside from the recommendations in the classic, "Cartridges of the World," the only printed reference I find is the April 1970 (p. 32) issue of the American Rifleman. There's a long article on this cartridge entitled, "Wildcat Cartridge Packs Kick." Author Bob Milek used a single-shot Thompson Contender for this article. Only jacketed bullets were used, ranging from 108 to 146 grs. Powders were H110, Unique and 2400. I'm reluctant to post loads, because this article was published 42 years ago. Perhaps an internet search would find this article offered online."
Got my copy ordered.
