Hi,
first : sorry for my English writing, I'm french canadian.
Last week I was a the shooting range with my father to try is new revolver (S&W 686). I liked it! but I think that .357 is not enough powerfull. I know that American Eagle is not a super charge but cheap. I'm just waiting for some casting tool and I will begin 38/357 reloading. I already reload 45 ACP for my 1911 since 2 years.
After shooting I spoked with shooters and one of them let my tried is 44 mag. I know it was a S&W double action. OMFG I'm in love!!! I want one or two...
I'm about buying a 44 and I have many question :
- is it true that Ruger revolver is more tough to handle 44 mag "super charge"?
- is it true that Ruger revolver in simple action is more tough than double?
- which powder is better to reload? I'm using titegroup for my 1911 but for a 44 mag I want sound and fire.
- can I use my Winchester WLP primer (for standard or magnum pistol) or user only large magnum primers from another brand?
- I'm looking for a mold, is 240g in semi wad cutter is a good choice?
- do I need to use gas check?
Sure I'll have more question later but for the moment if you can help me it will make my day.
Thanks,
