Thread: .44 magnum favourite loads?

Keep in mind mine is 44-40 so load data is slightly different But 44mag is similar to load plinking loads for
So i cast my own bullets and I get lead for free
So projectiles are free
I buy the cheapest large pistol primers possible normally around $7-8 per 100
I use brass that was given to me so that’s free
I use 7.5gn adi ap70n now we all know that adi is 500gm bottles so the ammunition is even just a touch cheaper than stated
We all know a pound of powder is 7000gn
If we long devide that by 7.5 we get 933 charges of powder per pound a few more from slightly larger adi bottles

Not to bore you with anymore math
This equates to
$15 per 100 rounds
Good quality 22 ammunition is more than that

And the 44 lever action is more fun
