RD 432-265 bullet for .44 mag?

[Tazman1602]

Just wondering if anyone knew if this bullet would be a good choice to use in a new .44 Mag Rossi 92, it's my "go to" bullet for .444 Marlin. If anyone has any other suggestions as far as molds go, I'd be happy to listen.

This is the NOE lube groove version of RD's bullet design.

if you can get the oal to feed through the rifle it should do well.
my 44 shoots up to 315 gr bullets with no problems.
and really seems to like 240-270gr the best.

Thanks Fiver, first venture with .44 mag, just picking it up tomorrow and am looking to cast for it. I have an accurate 135gr mold for my .357's that is deadly.

The only thing that I would add would be that if this is a Braztech rifle the bullet should be sized to .430".

If I remember right, the RD 432-265 was the best shooting bullet in my Ranch Hand. I know it worked/fed just fine.

Time to get buckshot over at Cast Boolits to make me a new sizer die!!! That bullet Michael, which is your design, is the lube groove version made
by NOE and it is hands down the MOST accurate I have ever had for my .444 Marlin.............
