I've seen all the reload data on 44 mag pistol loads, and they all use pretty fast burning powder. I'm shooting an 1894 44 mag, and don't see the need for a fast powder since it's a 24" barrel. So why not load some LEVERevolution instead. It's the best stuff since sliced bread for a 30-30..so why not in a 44 mag rifle?
BTW I use a 240 grain cast swc.
