Why not simply stay away from all these loads that use a miniscule amount of powder? Figure out your desired velocity range and look for a powder that gives you that and is near 100% load density. In...

I don't have one.... I did but I am sure that I gave them all away.

I'll dig in the parts box in the morning and see if I have one. Pretty sure I do.
Forum: Gunsmithing Tips & Tricks
Why not just swap that trigger for a smooth one? There are plenty of them floating about in folks parts boxes.
Typical 45 Ruger.... Once you get the throats and forcing cone right, you are left with the TDS front sight....

Using standard primers in my 44 vs magnum primers seems to have helped a pretty good bit. I tried them based on what Jim and others on other forums said. Now I save my magnum primers for the 475.

Not yet, but I have only installed around 7 of them. I have checked each one with a pin gauge and actually found that on one of them, it helped. If I ever have one that causes problems with...
