May take longer but anything you hit will be more disabled than you or I and in no further need of stipend as we are. My opinion only. I have Kaido's 140 gr VKV mold for my 1851 Navy ( Cheaper than a buffalo .44 1858 btw ). So now I'm saving for the 220. It will work in my 1860 and 1858 replicas.

You are confusing the heck out of me, and I'm not even the guy who asked the question.
"Kaido Ojaama makes a nice 220 gr mold for those late model Piettas ..." Why is this mold specific to the late model Piettas? Is a .44 caliber ball for a Pietta Remington replica any different than a .44 caliber ball for a Colt Army replica?
Is your 1851 Navy a .36 caliber, or one of the .44 caliber "clones"? If it's in .36 and that's what the 140-grain mold refers to -- why even mention it when the question is about an 1858 Remington, which is a .44?
I'm sure you mean to be helpful, but sometimes too much unrelated information is counter-productive.
