Anyone know of any load data for Varget in .444?
I've found loads for 280gr - 340gr Boolits, but am wanting to try it in 265gr.
It seems to burn cleaner with the heavier slugs than 4198, 8208, RL7...

The cartridge is .444 Marlin. The rifle is a C Sharps '85 High Wall. The boolit is my design from an adjustable mold I made specifically for this rifle. My load notes book goes back over 40 yrs, and...

I think I musta done something right. I'm going to load up a batch of the 300 gr and see how they do at 100 yds and beyond. I shot these at 50 yds because I didn't expect my...

pdawg....Any chance you could post a photo or two of your patching block?
I'm having a tough time visualizing it. Thanx

dmg4, 6.5mike- In response to your posts- I don't know how I could be any happier with the rifle. I finally got out yesterday morning to do the break-in/sight-in routine. The folks at C Sharps...

I ordered my C Sharps on Dec. 19th '13 and had it in hand 5 weeks later.
Have wanted an 1885 for many years and finally have it. Very pleases with
it. Just haven't been able to do much shooting...

I once fired it from prone, at a chuck that was uphill from me. Lesson learned. Instant nose bleed...

I'm still on this .444 long range quest. I forgot to mention that I'll be using
A C Sharps High Wall, 30" Badger Bbl, tang and globe sights. Just waiting
For the weather to warm up a bit--- it's...

Thanx for the reply. Tho I've never seen a boat tail on a .430 dia. bullet, your suggestion to try the same shapes/angles is something I hadn't considered. I think I'll take a good long look at the...

Hollow Point:
Just want to say I'm one of those nuts that likes to lob boolits considerably farther
than most. The BT idea is something I've been thinking about for some time.
This is the first...

Finally! Been looking for a group of .444 fans for a long time. I started my addiction to this cartridge in 1970 with Marlin's lever gun. Always thought it's long range target potential is under...

I just joined Cast Boolits and would greatly appreciate some help.
I'm not new to reloading and casting. I started hand loading in '65 and casting
in '70. Problem is, I've been out of the loop for...
