Anyone have a suggestion using Bullseye, 231, or Power Pistol? I have a lot of those powders on hand. Speer shows 231 and Bullseye in their #14 short barrel load data that I have. I can pick up some Clay's if necessary. I think that this gun will be as fun to shoot as my 625 with 200 grain target auto rim's.

The Speer Gold Dot Short Barrel loads in both .44 Special and Magnum, as well as all the Xtreme bullets for reloading showed up today and yesterday. The magnum Gold Dot loads sure look like they mean business!
Clays works fine through a Dillon measure. No need to hunt down Clays if you have 231 and BE, unless you just want to experiment. I've also used 5gr of bullseye and 8gr 231 under Xtreme 200gr plated in .44 Mag brass. I have power pistol but haven't loaded with it yet.
