As mentioned, set the H110 aside until you experiment using some moderate speed powders (Unique, Power Pistol, LongShot & Blue Dot) in your 44 Mag cases. Make life simple & easy, ditch the 44 Special case idea too, unless you have a 44 Special only revolver.

Now that's an understatement! You can load 2400 down till it's about to get stuck in the barrel because it's going too slow.
Download H110/W296 & you'll get erratic ignition & eventually a squib, with a bullet stuck in the forcing cone, just waiting for you to fire the next round. Save the H110 for full loads, later.

If you have .429" throats & you're not comfortable shooting the .431" Zero's in them, I run them thru a .429" Lee Push-Thru Sizer. It's quick & it'll knock them down to .430". Great bullets for the price.
