I would like a S&W 69 as well, but there are a couple other options:

The 3" Ruger GP-100 44 special has been a nice gun that I enjoy. The Taurus 441 that I have is just slightly...
I have only shot my Ruger Ranch in 450 BM one time since I bought it last year - I started off shooting some sub-sonic fun loads.
I posted about them in this thread.

Bill,
I started experimenting with cast bullets in my 308 Garand a few years ago. I was working up a load with H4895 and the Lyman 311299.

Here is a thread on Castpics that has a good amount of information on the slow surplus powder.

Mike,
Just a safety note, I have a Forehand Arms .32 that sounds similar to yours given to me by a friend (your photo's did not come through, so it is hard to tell). Please find a tight fitting...
The MP molds .32 DEWC is a shooter. I bought mine back in a group buy. He forgot to ship mine, I had to remind him a month after everyone else got theirs. The mold was in good shape, but the sprue...
OK - I got out and shot my Ruger RAR for the first time yesterday. I didn't have too many rounds loaded, just a few to see what velocities I would get with Bullseye.

First Comment -...
Your version is in better condition than mine, but I sure do love mine. I have a couple of the 38 official police match's, but I shoot this 22 the most.

Thanks for the tip. I've got a 4lb jug of 20/28 that I was playing with 44 special rounds with. I might have to give that a try too.
Got them loaded, now I need work to slow down so I can take a day off to give them a go.
Haven't gotten out to shoot, it rained too hard last week.
But I did load 2 different loads with the Lee 200gr SWC sized .452 with different charges of Bullseye to get a feel for where to start. ...
I worked them up in Gordon's Reloading Tool, and although they are in line with Bullseye loads I have shot in the past, I wanted to test them before sharing to make sure they function as expected and...
Yes, they are very very nice.
And the Security Six grips are sweet too.

If I can ever get some time off from work, I will have something to share.
I bought a Ruger RAR in 450BM last year specifically to fool around with these types of loads for fun. I enjoy...
Good job, I have been thinking of doing that to my Italian single actions. The reddish finish they come with is an abomination.

Great idea.
What are you using to power the camera at the target? I use a Mac too, how do you program the card? I looked it up on Amazon this morning and saw a model that comes with a high gain...

Yes I do. I eat bacon and eggs most every morning for breakfast, so it is a free byproduct of the cooking process.
And we all know that Bacon makes everything better.

I just checked and it has the same warning in it for modern steel rifles.

That is interesting. My Enfield shoots to the sights with plain old vanilla 158gr bullets too.
That is why I knew of Western Bullets 200 grainers. I bought them all to try in my Enfield.......
Forum: Cast Boolits
I know you already placed an order with Matt's, but Western Bullets has a decent selection of 200gr bullets at fair prices:

I'm not Jon, but the 186gr NOE shoots very well out of my 1882 Trapdoor. In fact I just took advantage of the NOE 15% off sale and picked up a 4 cavity version this week. I ordered it on the 9th...

Thanks for posting your methods and results.
I bought a set of the NOE tools too, but haven't tried using them yet.
