Does anyone have experience with .429" hard cast boolits in their 44 Magnum?
I have recently acquired 1,000 hard cast 240 grain SWC boolits that are .429" in diameter. The fellow who cast them says they have a Brinell hardness of 16. I plan to handload them for use in my 7 1/2" Super Blackhawk, but I really don't know how just hot to make my loads. I understand that I will need 22,750 p.s.i. to get them to obturate, but I am concerned about the effect that their smallish diameter will have upon obturation and accuracy.
By the way, my standard powders are Bullseye, Blue Dot, 2400, and H110.
Thanks in advance for your advice.
