yeah that suggestion to use a shoulder or chest holster does have a lot of merits



I used a 21 grain charge of H110 under a LEE 310 grain hard cast 44 cal. bullet seated out to the lower crimp groove

MOLD DC C 430-310-RF



with a 500 mag revolver
just a bit of info on these lee "440 grain" 500 S&W bullet molds ,

with the gas check and lube on these cast bullets,
at least using my 95% WW alloy and 5% tin, mix,
the projectiles actually weigh about 470 grains
they are quite accurate (WITH THE GAS CHECKS)

the best load for accuracy, after a great deal of testing.. 20 grains of blue dot
Its certainly not a max load
but its very accurate and it certainly hammers hogs



YES IT REQUIRES a shoulder holster to use comfortably
