Forgot to mention it was a 44,but I suppose you figured it out..What is a moderate distance? 50/75 yards I'm guessing.

Well I figured 44 or 45 colt, and yes 50 to 75 yds. even a 100 if you practice and know you can hit what you're aiming at at a particular distance. I once took a decent 8 point around 90 yds away with my 357.
I also got a small buck with a scoped 44 pistol some years ago at around 60yds., but I don't know what bullet that was.

If they are from GT bullets they feed fine. I just shot some Tuesday, fed and worked great!! 
. They sat on top of 11g of HS-6 seated to the crimp grove left them @ 1.630", the bullets are .060" longer than 250g rnfp bullets from MBC. In my Henry BBS 45c no problems feeding. I figured MV was around 1400+
