    Load development: The good, the bad & the ugly.

    Ok so I just got done putting this rifle together and started doing a bit of load development.

Anyway, here are the...

    44 Mag Load

    I picked up some Barnes XPB 225gr 44Mag bullets. I was wondering if anyone has any loads for them with W296/H110. All that is listed in the Barnes Manual #4 is AA#9 and Enforcer. These are as long as my 300 XTPs and will compress the hell out of mild charge.
