Father of the 44 Magnum was Elmer Keith. His favorite load was
22gr of 2400 topped by a 250gr cast SWC of his design.. l prefer
that boolit also.. Home cast from wheel weights and range scrap.
l cast a 250gr Keith SWC from a Hensley&Gibbs #503 mould. Sized
to 431''.. My MAX is 20gr/2400.. l shoot these in a S&W revolver.
Not as strong as a Contender tho... 20gr is easier on the gun and
old guys like me
Hey Thanks!
I actually got out today with two loads I worked up.
1st load was 225 gr FTX with 20 gr H110
2nd load was 240 Rainier with 23.5 gr H110
No pressure signs and both were accurate and mild
