I picked up a 100 piece package of 210gr Silvertip Hollow Points, and at the price I paid, I should've bought the other bag. All of my manuals are of recent print, so none have that bullet as a component. Does anyone have an older manual that lists that bullet with data for 44 special or 44 magnum, and would be willing to share? I thank anyone in advance for the help.

Disregard please. Had to stretch out prior to using my Google fu. In case you all are wondering, Lyman #49 had this.......

If you go on the Hodgdon load data site, they have loads listed for the 210 grain Sierra JHC bullet you can work off of to develop your load. The bullet configuration is close enough to give you an idea of where to start with and you can then load it up carefully to the power you want with whatever Hodgdon, IMR or Winchester powder you want to use. You would probably have been better off buying the extra bag of bullets so that you had some to test with and still have a good supply left over.

I see you found something in the Lyman book, but if you want to load with a powder not covered in there, the Hodgdon page is a good start.

I worked up my 210gr silvertip load using the 200gr jacketed data in my Speer manual, I settled on 27gr of H110, it throws a huge flame but they projectiles expand nicely

I'm doing the work up for my M69. For kicks on whatever load works, I'll try it in one of my other platforms for 44mag. I appreciate everyone's feedback. If it works well, I may just bite the bullet, so to speak, and grab another bag or two, even if they are seemingly made of platinum.

Use any data for any 210gr jhp & work it up.
