rainy dreary day today, so I loaded some ammo. Both of these have shot very well in my RSRH. I could take either deer hunting and have no worries.

Now I have a real choice when it somes to hunting! :D
This one is the NOE version of Ranch Dog's wonderful HP boolit. I wish it was an RG4 instead of an RG2. :)

I got this mould from Mihec because it fills the gap in my 'light' weight boolit lineup. Plus the star HP is cool. :D

Dreary and rainy here in middle tn also. Those are some nice bullets. Now you're all set for a nice day!

Nice Blammer, seeing you are a .44 nut like me, there are 50 dead deer in that box! :p
I hope you don't waste any on paper!

Why does it seem to me that the cartridgs laying down seem like they have no crimp? Have you developed a new way to not crimp revolver rounds?

these have no crimp, I don't crimp any of my revolver rounds, never needed to.

so yea I suppose I did develop a way not to crimp revolver rounds, I just didn't know it. :)

I have that mold in the PB version. The crimp groove is real shallow. Even close up, I have to tilt them just right to see the crimp. Boolit's light, so it doesn't need much of a groove.

Blammer, have you chronied that 2400 load? Just curious....

I use that boolit over 9.5 gr HS-6 for indoor target practice.

I'll probably stuff a few rounds in my R77/44mag and see how they do.

Iron Mike, I suspect the 19gr of 2400 and the 250gr boolit in the top pic will be about 1300fps out of my RSRH. Why? because another 250gr boolit with 19gr 2400 clocked about 1350 fps.

the 210gr one, yea I'm interested to see the velocity on that one for sure.
