Fast .44 cast bullet round needed.

[jpshaw]

When I say fast I mean normal (1700 - 1800) level rounds.  All my books only list pistol loads for cast bullet rounds.  I need a cast bullet for deer since my barrel is oversize and accuracy sucks.  I've found a Montana 240 grain round that they will size .433 but I need some starting points.  As stated I'm looking for about normal velocity for a hard cast bullet.  I have H110, Tightgroup and Reloader 15 and really don't want to buy any more.  The H110 should get me where I need to go though.  Thanks in advance for any help here guys.

Hodgdon lists a 240 gr JHP over 23.0 gr of H110 as a starting load and 24.0 as a max load. The speed is about what you're looking for. Using jacketed data for cast won't get you in trouble with pressure problems, some leading maybe if things aren't sized just right.

Thanks for that bit of info on using jacketed bullet data.  I will just start with 23 gr of H110.  Forgot to mention that it will be a gaschecked bullet also.
