All the talk about this bullet in the big boy is crap. Mine has a 1/20 twist and with 10 gr of HP 38 they key hole terrible at 25 yards. I mean so bad I was laughing about.it.. what do you think is wrong.
Do you think the 200 would be better or shout I just use my Rossi 357 rifle..Thanks..
Site seems to be working OK.

Re: 240 Dr lswc terrible
No help with the hp 38, as I've never used it.
Mostly Unique with my cast loads, 2400 or H110 might work better.
Hopefully one of the other loaders will comment.

Re: 240 Dr lswc terrible
sorry, also no experience with HP38 .... have you tried any jacketed 240's
Re: 240 Dr lswc terrible
HP 38 is not a good choice for 44 mag. I agree with the Unique, 296 or H110 and 2400.
