I recently picked up a nice older 629-2 Classic w6" bbl and unfluted cyl, and I am looking for advice on an accurate load for this. I have the Lee C429-240 and NOE 432-265 wfn molds on hand. So far I haven't found the "accurate" load that I seek with these boolits. I size them to .431 which seems to be right at the throat dimension as they just push thru with light resistance. The NOE is my go to boolit for hunting and my load of 19.5 gr H110 is shooting at a little under 1200 fps. but is not as accurate as I like. This load shoots great in my Henry BB at 1435 fps and shot good out of my Ruger SBH Hunter with 7 1/2" bbl. at 1250 fps. Just wondering if I should push them a little faster or use different powder etc.
Has anyone had experience with this boolit in a 629 and care to share any info.
BTW I did not have any leading and am using homemade Ben's Red lube. Great stuff.
