    Loading manuals

    What are some other sources for load data on heavy bullets in .44 mag and .357 mag. My load books primarily show just there own bullets and not heavy for caliber cast. Primarily looking for 300 grain and heavier .44 and 180 grain .357

    Lyman Cast Bullet Handbook, 4th ed shows 180 grain cast data for 357 Mag and 300 and 310 grain cast bullet data for 44 Mag.

    welcome to the forum new old guy,

    this link contains probably 30 links to load data sources: https://thefiringline.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=435562
    and this for .357: https://marvinstuart.com/firearm/Man...7%20Magnum.pdf
    and for 44mag this is a wordy and non-specific but may be helpful: http://www.sixguns.com/tests/tt44mag.htm

    I'm going to have to look at the Lee book. I've never looked at one and my LGS Reloading store usually has an open one to look at. Already nave the Lyman cast book but I want more choices as to powders
