Default RE: .44 mag bullets

I know someone who reloads and uses 24gr of Hodgdon with a Nosler 240 JSP bullet
24gr of Hodgdon what??????????????????????

Anyway, in my handguns i use 23 grains of H-110, CCI mag primer, and a hard 245 grain "Keith" style bullet that i cast my self. I lube it with ALOX.

Jacketed bullets are a lot harder on a handgun than hard cast bullets. I learned this very early on in my handgun shooting career, and went right back to hard cast bullets. I've taken deer moose ect.. with my bullet and load, so i know how it works, and i see no reason to change. I've also won a lot of silhouette matches with the same load.

In my 44 rifle, i use jacketed bullets, and most of the time factory loads, as i don't shoot it much these days.
