RE: Reloading cast bullets in .44 Magnum question.
Are these going to be the first cast bullets you have shot in the gun?
I shoot alot of cast bullets in my 44's. Some I lube, and some I do not. But I castall ofmy own bullets, There are no short cuts. There are alot of factors that that can affect amount of lube in the grooves. The two main factors are age and temperature. Bore condition of firearm is as important as amount of lube on bullet. I would have no problem shooting them without relubing. Relubing is a pain in the **s. Can you tell if the bullets are old? How hard are they?
Go over to the Cast bullet Association forum page(I am a member), and post your question. There are some real experts over there. Tom.
