hello;
purchased a near mint condition marlin 1894s in 44 magnum last week. serial number is 0604...... think manufacture date is 1994. it has micro grove rifling.
looking for input on what to feed this rifle. have several hundred 240 grain xtp hornady bullets and several hundred ww 240 grain h/p bullets.
have a hoch mold that drops 255 grain cast bullet. the bullet base is out of round @.003". using a lee hand sizer i get a bullet between .4295 - .4315.
is the out of round bullet a problem???
anyone use the lee 310 grain bullet for their 44 magnum marlin???
have plenty of 2400, hp38, and accurate #5.
would someone suggest reloading data for the above powders and bullets.
plan on shooting paper and maybe some deer hunting.
thanks for any input.
