Hey good folks, just thought I would ask this crowd about heavy 44 boolits. I have a 429421 and a scalped 429649. The 649 drops a 305 grain from my alloy and is wonderful. The 429421 drops at 250.
What mold drops the nicest, widest and heaviest 44 boolit that will stabilize and or be useful in my 7.5" SBH?
Maybe the consensus will be that the 649 is the biggest practical boolit, if so that is fine as it will likely do more than I ever need.
Be brand and model number specific if you can for any mold you have and like.
These will be for swine social work and just for the heck of it.
Now I don't plan to push the envelope speed wise, all I would want is 1100 fps. Probably less.
If there is a thread or two that any of you know about I would love to read those too, but my search-fu is weak apparently.
I plan to use my 8 lb jug of mostly unused h-110, my starline brass and WLP. Although I would love to hear load info too, mostly I am interested in the biggest nose and heaviest boolit mold that will work well.
And if it would function well in a short TC barrel or a marlin 1894 that would be a plus. Although I don't have either of those yet, but hope to.
Thanks!
Dan
