I think that one of the most enjoyable aspects of this lifestyle is the things one can do for ones' self.

You talked about purchased wads being a little off in size but they are a little off in price too.

The Harbor freight punches cut a good sized wad for .36 but there is nothing in the set that is really right for .44. It is close and I certainly use them but I found that when I wanted to start loading cartridges I really needed to make my own for .45LC.

Anyway, It is my humble opinion that you are on the right track.
