[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 1102143, member: 48043"] if you look at the 44 mag and special data with blue dot you will see that they are using 10.2 grains in a 44 special with a jacketed 240. they are also using 16.0 grains with a 200 grain speer in the 44mag data. Since what I see in the data I have leads me to believe the 200 barnes really acts like a 225 grain lead core offering pressure wise, I'd say the ten grain 44 special load would be an absolute bottom; I would also say that the sixteen grain 200 grain load data would likely be around ten percent hot. I would run the pistol from 10 to 14.5 grains and see what happens. Take your time and use standard primers; blue dot does not need magnum primers. [/QUOTE]
