[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 627431, member: 25383"] first of all I'd never attempt to shoot bullets that hot in my 629 because I like the gun that much. To be exact I don't shoot H110 and 296? in it either. I've kinda settled in on AA#9 at 1350fps using a 250 grain cast bullet. But in my TC's and a couple others I'll use H110. The only place I've noticed the bullets moving in is with a lever gun. Yet I load my .444 with three different die sets, and one of them is an RCBS. Nothing moves! The bullets will move in my .450 is they are not heavilly crimped. I also work off the cannelure on all those big bore bullets. (one of these days I going to buy a C&H cannelure tool). But thru the years of trying this and that die, I have found that I have better luck with the crimp using the old Lyman dies (tobe be exact the old steel ones that I rework). Now I've also found that the factory location of the cannelure to be wrong on some bullets (the Sierra 300 grain bullet comes to light) when working with the .444 and some others. Bullets in lever guns get hammered a lot, and you gotta watch the overall length in them. Same can be said with big bore magazine rifles like a .458 mag in a mod. 70. be carefull gary [/QUOTE]
