Forty I have a 240 gr swc mold for the 44.
But I like the fn design much better, and think it would be better suited for hunting than the swc.
Even though some years ago I killed a nice doe with a swc in 41 mag. she fell right where she was.

Finally started back on the 9mm I had primed. Send 2020 off with a bang. Had these setting for a while, now that the weather has taken a nose dive, good time to do it.
I've got 150 pcs of 45/70 brass to load. 100 are new Starline, some may need trimming. It'll keep me busy & off the streets for a while, :lol:
I rarely ever buy a rifle, but when I do, it's a Henry.

Half way thru 100 rounds of .357/180's. Stocking stuffers for the wife. If she don't like 'em, I guess I'll have to shot 'em! 8-)

Made up some loads for my new Henry Long Ranger. Hoping to find the sweet load for it.
Loaded several rounds of .243 Win. I'm using a Sierra 85 grain HPBT. Used RL15, IMR4064 and H4350. The RL15 and IMR4064 are preferred hunting loads listed in the Sierra manual for this bullet. the H4350 is from the Nosler manual.
So I'll work up to the finished loads and hope one will be very close to THE ONE!
Next week the weather is forecasted to get to mid to high 30's, so it'll be shooting time! :D

De-capped and polished 200 .357 cases today. Gotta get going on some accuracy testing for my Big Boy. Several sunny days ahead so good time to get to the range.
