Just picked up a rossi 44 magnum rifle in a trade. Wondering what molds and dies people use. Will just be a plinking gun and maybe hunt deer with it. I know these have a bigger boar than normal so advice for a mold that drops fatter bullets would be nice. Thanks in advance.

it may or may not have the 432 barrel.
I shoot 430 in mine.
anyway a 240gr rnfp will be your ticket to happiness and simplicity.

I use a 429244 in mine slides through my Winchester like butter.

I use the 429-667 Rf 240 grainer, mine doesn.t like SWC's, but sized .431, those shoot well.

I shoot .431" in mine and it does alright, only ever needed a bronze brush and some oil to clean out the worst, usually just a boresnake through it is enough.

Mine was a tigre model with the medallion of the jaguar on the side. It did Ok with the 429421 and wc820 in quantities to hurt your shoulder.
