Default RE: 44 Mag Bullet diameter

As I said above, this gun has won silhouette matches with Keith style cast bullets with gas checks and ALOX, BUT I don't want to cast bullets. I have too many other things going on and I just won't have the time and I don't need that many bullets. The price of a melting pot and molds would buy me a lifetime supply of 44 bullets.

If I could find a source of consistent bullets that I knew would be the same every time I bought them and they were already lubed with a gas check I would consider that. In lieu of that I want a jacketed bullet that will be the same whenever I buy them and I'm only going to shoot around 100 rounds per year after working up my initial load. Plus my experience with Fastex on copper jacketed bullets gives me little to worry about with copper buildup with so few rounds per year. I think I'm going to start with the Remington 240 gr JHP .429 diameter.

H110 with approximately 23grs, give or take, is my load no doubt.
