Somebo5y is going to ask what caliber, so I thought I would just jump right in and ask. What caliber?

I am hoping to come close to matching one of Ranch Dog's 300gr for the 45 Colt.

44 magnum rossi 92 24 inch barrel. Forget my head if not holding together by one nerve LOL

My reply went off into the ether and now I see it's a 44 Mag not a Colt. Any at 300 grains I cast the Lee 454300, with gas check and lube it goes around 320 with my alloy. On top of a good charge of H110 with stock sights it will stay in 3" at 50 if I do my part. In the big case with a heavy boolit H110 is fast becoming my favorite powder.

I use my 300-grain cast bullet with my R92 44 Mag along with a stout load of Lil'Gun or H110. Kills good.

Went out to the range today to see if I could get the new Marble's sight dialed in. Used some commercial remans and some of my 255 and 200 grain reloads to get it close at 50 yards. Got it staying inside 4" at 50 with the stock front sitght. Switched to my hunting load and got reminded real quick how punishing the load the steel butt plate and just a tee shirt can be. So far love the sight but I need to do some work with it to get my eye to line everything up consistently.
