Ruger Alaskan in 454 Casull bought early March. Did have an extractor that had a death grip on one cartridge but 600 grit and some time worked that out perfectly.

****. I just saw that mould on a website not too long ago.

Interesting. Well Oregon Trail lists data of 24.5 grains of H110 as their max. I'll probably stick with that for now. Shooting these in about 2 weeks over Chrono so will see how they go.

Since it appears I'm pioneering this bullet (at least willing to share) in the 458 Lott I will be posting video and my findings. My reasons for a 730 grain bullet? Genesis 6:1-4 and Matthew 24:37....

NEI I believe is the mould maker for the 730. I have some from Matt's bullets cast.

Agreed I'm skeptical of forum loads as anyone should be. I have book loads loaded up to test. Oregon trail has loads for their 360 with H110 at 24.5 grains which is .5 grains over max listed for...

Aware barrel length is an issue. Finding load data for powders beyond H110/296, lilgun and imr4227 or trail boss is non-existent so far for the 360 grain bullet.

Edit--just now looking at the...

Well in fact none of the max book loads are listed at 60k psi. They are listed at around 45-48k per Hodgdon. I'm posting to gain insight into real world numbers or even an idea what Quickloads is...

I recently acquired another 454 Casull. It's a Ruger Alaskan with a 2.5 inch barrel.

I am using Oregon Trail 360 hard cast bullets to start with. I have a number of Matt's Bullets 350 grain...

Majority of mine will be cast as well. Have some 730's loaded up for tests and while I'm snowed in this weekend I'll work on my 550's as well.

1900 fps!! Yikes

Remember the load by chance?

Perhaps IMR 3031 or 4895 would be good for your purposes. I can't find viht powders frequently enough for me to trust them. If u have access to accurate powders I forget which but one seems popular...

No IMR powders?

I've seen H4895 used for Matt's 730 grain in a win mag case 52-60 grains. 60 blew primer. I'll likely start with 52 grains in the Lott case and go up much slower than he did. He had pressure signs at...

Thank you very very much

233305 Here's the Matt's bullets 730 grain.

233250. This is the Lyman 462560

Thank you Glenn. I will PM you probably Friday about it? No data yet. Even JD Jones didn't really have any ideas for me yet except quick loads.

Well, a .50 bmg at 20 lbs on one platform, 750 grain bullet at 3000 fps wasn't bad to me. I'm at at a 10lb rifle 730 grain bullet with likely under 2000 fps. I think I'll be okay. I've shot the Win...

I have that bullet coming as well for use in the Lott. Do you remember or have the load available for it? I need a starting load with appropriate powders.

I use hot water, a couple granules of Lemishine, Dawn and steel pins for 1 quart.

Haha. Brontosaurus.

CZ has a cavity in stock for Mercury reducer. Just needs opened a bit more. Is offered standard for 505 gibbs
