Here's a copy of a previous post of mine. Concerning my handloading of my Desert Eagle 50 A.E..
Speer 325gr JHP\31.0 GR H110\CCI Magnum Large Pistol Primers\various 50 A.E. cases.\overall length (I set the caliper at 1.61 in, and the loaded round must pass through this with ease, but with not to much of a gap. If I feel there is too much of a gap I disqualify it).
As a note: I remove the barrel, and drop the loaded round down the chamber. Then tip the barrel up side down. If the loaded cartridge falls out of the chamber easily it passes. If it doesn't, or if the loaded cartridge gets stuck when going in it is disqualified.
As always you should be cautious of any hand loads given on any gun forum.
Hope this helps!
