I don't have my reloading bench up and running yet (everything is still in boxes from my last move) so I have been looking for some loaded cast boolits for my SBH Bisley Hunter.

I read that some of the heavier boolits (>300gr) were too long for the cylinder in a SBH. Can anybody confirm that this round would in fact be too long.

Also has anybody actually used this round? Some feedback before purchasing would be nice, but the price is sure right.

I dont think so, I shoot 300 plus grain bullets in all of mine!

The ad says any 44 mag in good condition. Usually the ones that are too long for a SBH will say Redhawk or some such only!

What cartrage OAL are you using on your 300+ gr loads and still have them chamber in your SBH?

I have shot quite a few of those through one of my Model 29s. I think they will fit your SBH just fine.
