Powder charges for .44mag/spec.
« on: March 25, 2005, 01:55:46 PM »
I was wondering if you guys could help me out with this one.  What is the min. and max. powder charges for a .44 special/alliant 2400/ and a 240gr. jacketed winchester bullet.  Another one that I need to know is what is the min. and max. charges of the same powder for a .44mag with a 270gr. Gold Dot SP bullet.  I can't seem to find the answer in my reloading manual.  Thanks.
