Looking at purchasing a bunch of reloaded .44 mag bullets. Heres the specs - 240gr.SWC bullets, 20.7 grains of Accurate #9 powder, I'm not sure what the primers are. Cases have been reused several times is all. Price is $100. for 650 rounds. Is this a "safe" reload? Considered mild, hot, or what? Any ideas what velocity would be like? SWC bullets - mainly used for target practise, hunting, or what? I can get a really good deal on these but reloading isn't my game and would like to know more about what I'm buying. Thanks guys.
