Well, I think I've settled on my fun shooting load for my .44 special. It's the Lee 200 gr RNFP, unsized and lubed with Lee Liquid Alox. I load it over 4.0 gr Bullseye. It's ridiculously mild, easy and cheap to load, and it shoots about like this:



This is 5 shots at 25 yards, standing two handed single action. I don't shoot much better than that.

Funny, everyone seems to tout the classic Keith/Skeeter load of 7.5 Unique/Lyman 429421 as a mild mannered plinking load. I have tried that load with a 200 gr bullet and it did shoot well, but I don't find it mild. It's not abusive, just not what I'd call mild. I like this better.
