[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 2539147, member: 48043"] that powder is a bit slow burning for cast in a 44... you may be able to get by with it, but I'd think about something blue dot/ #7 or faster... I say this and I just picked up a keg of Vit n100 last month with the intention of running heavier cast pill loads... n110 is a stick powder though, so I can back off a bit without serious issues. Ball powders tend to fall off quickly and get unstable (squib, etc.) when you back them off too far. I've had to help drive a pill from my Pop's 44 barrel before from backed off #9 loads squibbing- not fun. On the flip side, #9, 4100, lil gun type powders make great full throttle powders for a 44 or 357. [/QUOTE]
