45Workhorse- thank you but we must remember Ajay for making lit possible. The 220s aren’t that expensive. I usually hunt deer with a 444 or 308 but next season I will be using this and post results...

Barry54 I also deliberated over roll crimping but Ajay showed me it wasn’t necessary so the 6 point crimp was good for me. One less step in the production process!
Barry this is loaded using an old...
I was a bit hesitant to get one at first but I do not regret buying it at all. The gun is capable of great accuracy provided you get the right loads. The Remington Accutips are also highly accurate...
I haven’t shot anything with the round ball yet but reports are it can be quite devastating!
The weight of the LEE .575 round ball is about 280 grains.
For 2 months I have researched and tested these loads. I had a lot of help from former member Ajay Madan. For anyone that has a Savage 220 rifled bbl shotgun - this load is sweet!. I will...

These are loads by Ajay K Madan's R & D. I had a time trying piece all of this together until I got ahold of Ajay. I'm putting this info back out there because I know many will want to see this...

I've been looking for one for weeks and finally I found a new one online - it should be here in a few days. I've already got two molds for my 44 rifles so I can start with these boolits = Accurate...

Farmer all bets say you will like the 77/357. I've had one for 5 years and love it. Shoots jacketed boolits and cast boolits great. For copper jackets, the Hornady XTP .430 158 & 180 gr work great....

Absolutely without hesitation -
Is this just a hypothetical question or is something up?
Forum: Gas Checks
I use soda cans with Pat's Checkmaker with excellent results. You may have to experiment with the right thickness for your boolit. Once zeroed in, you will be good to go. Coil and Foil for us lazy...

Boolit Makers & Gentlemen,
I've been following this topic regarding the 77/44 it seems like forever. I've got a 77/357 tack driver shooting lead so I decided to get one in a 44. I've...

I just loaded some 280 grain LBT LFN boolits for my 77/44. They were suggested to me to use in that particular gun by Veral of LBT but they won't work in that rotary magazine as is. The first one...
Forum: Cast Boolits
That is good info. My bbl slugged at .4295 - almost .430. I plan on sizing to 431 after I get the plain base check on when I first size to .432. I'm guessing 431 or 432 should be a good bore fit...

I will keep that in mind in case I run into stock issues. Thanks!

I have not tried it yet. I can make a few inert rounds to test the functioning of that bullet with the rotary mag and feeding. I contacted Buffalo Arms per your info to get a...

A few questions from a noobie. Does anyone have any experience reloading with a Wide Flat Nose Boolit in the Ruger 77/44 rotary magazine? I just got a 280 LFN mold from LBT but I'm trying to locate...
Forum: Factory Rifles
Actually 2 at once: A Ruger 77/44 in camo and a Ruger 44 Super BlackHawk Bisley Hunter. Just got my 44/280gr LBT mold, Pat Marlin's plain base checkmaker and trying to get my bullet sizers now so I...
Forum: Factory Rifles
I bought one of each. Very accurate with jacketed bullets. Has anyone worked up excellent full house boolit loads for these rifles? I'm particularly interested in WFN cast boolits for these guns. ...
