[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 2320951, member: 115658"] My greetings to a new member from the commonwealth. Great start in asking for help. Load manuals from various manufactures are needed. In addition to providing specific load data, recommended loading procedures and precautions are provided. On-line loading data is available. Both load data and load procedures are to be found on the RamShot web site, recommended powders for both rifle and handgun are included. The on-line Hodgdon site has both rifle and handgun data. A wide variety of powders and bullets are suitable for both 6.5 Creedmoor & .44 Mag. Upon looking at the data all sorts of loads may be made up. Sensible precautions are to never use any data from forums like this one without verification from established data sources. Other precautions would be to never ever use another shooter's handloaded ammo or to buy powder or primers from private sellers - ball powders like H414 & TiteGroup look very similar & using TiteGroup in a rifle would be catastrophic with potential for losing life, eye, or limb. Security sealing on many brands of powders is inadequate and instances of tampering or replacing powders then resealing using rubber cement to glue back seals paper seals have occurred. We are now in a powder, primer & other component shortage & the best was to keep shooting is familiarity with everything suitable & then finding it. The .44 mag does not need to be loaded to max capacity with H110, like for pigs & deers, inspection of various manuals will show many milder target & small game loads (less recoil & blast). Happy shooting ! [/QUOTE]
