I have stopped loading for my 44's 3",4",ruger- 51/2",71/2", since a friend who is a (Class 6 re-loader ) I believe that is correct desription, He is a professional re-loader. He Started loading 44 240 XTP's for me, I called and asked where the chip or laser is. I explained that @ 60 + my eyes do not work like they used to, but I put 6 of his rounds into a big hole @ 25 yards off the bench, I figured I got lucky, till I adjusted the sights and did it again, I adjusted the sights for final tweak and it did it again. I told him they must be " magic" bullets since I do not shoot 1 big hole with full house hunting loads. I tried some of his " practice loads" 240 gr hard cast SWC and they must have the same laser guidance system. My "match " 44 loads ( mouse farts) gave great groups but hunting loads never that good. So now I send him the brass, he sends 1000 XTP's. Did not mean to Hi-Jack the thread, enjoy the 44 and it options in loads. Be Safe,
