The wealth of knowledge is impressive and your input is valued and appreciated. I have read them all and have done some reflecting on what I want out of the load.
With that said I worked up several loads using 240g lswc and stepping 231 powder to 6, 6.5 and 7 grains. staying about 20% below mag loads for the powder. As soon as I get a moment I will head over to the range to get some accuracy and chrono readings. My objective was seeing if I could safely cross the 1000 fps barrier with a 240g bullet in a 44 special load using components on hand. I will post results when I get the range results.
Thanks rodpac for the suggestion on reading Ken Waters. I will find a copy and do that.
