Purchasing the 44 Redhawk off of 200swc. Looks just like one i let go of back in the 80s.
Younger and dummer back then.
Any way here are three 44 cast bullets that are awaiting its arrival.
Left to right 250 Keith , 280 LBT WFN , 320 LBT LFN

very nice score on the handgun
I like you choices of boolits as well
I am a sucker for the 250 gr Keith boolits but I also really like the looks of the 320 gr

I shoot more 44 special with a Lee GB 250 Keith than anything. That mould casts around .435 so it is easy to make them fit.
I was shooting .429 bullets but got lots of leading, went to .432 and no more leading.

Great revolver. You are going to enjoy it.

All three molds cast at .432+ so hopes are that they will work with the RH.
That barrel is a long one for sure. Bought it only for long range fun at the back 40.
I would like all three of the above bullets to shoot well but my highest hopes are for the Keith type. Time will tell.
