Default 29-3 stiff extraction

Must have had a pressure problem. Fixed same with a change from red dot to unique. Some guns are that picky

Sticky extraction is usually a sign of over pressure ammo. Red Dot is a fast burning powder, fairly close to Bullseye, and much faster than Unique. For the 44 Magnum, Unique is an excellent powder for mid-range loads using magnum brass to duplicate full power 44 Special up to reduced power 44 Magnum level loads.
