Hi James: I have used Garrett loads for quite some time with my .45-70 with great satisfaction, however the $50/box is a bit much. Although my testing is far from scientific, I believe I am getting "Garrett level" performance with the Beartooth Pile Drivers at a fraction of the cost, along with the other benefits of handloading.

I have also purchased the Beartooth 345 gr for my .45 Rugers and bet they would approximate the .44 garrett loads. You might give them a try.

Good luck,
CE
