MP makes those. I have .44 version. Great one
Having shot thousands of wadcutters in .38Spl revolvers with complete satisfaction, I would still take semi-wadcutters for both rifle /and/ pistol any day. More stable, better ballistics, better penetration. Wadcutters were made for paper punching as far as I can tell; semi-wadcutters do well for most every application.
The wadcutters in repeaters will function but are very sensitive to overall length. I have loaded them in my henry original reproduction in 44-40 and when right they feed good and are very accurate.
This might not be a wadcutter but it is pretty close and Accurate Molds has it in 44 cal as well. My 45's shoot it very accurately and it leaves quite sharp holes in a target.
IT AINT what ya shoot--its how ya shoot it. NONE of us are as smart as ALL of us!
Why not indeed !
The mould I would look at first ... and I have this design in both 38 /357 and 41 magnum ...
Is the NOE #432-237-WC BL4 2 cavity (1 in stock ) RG2 PB .
This is based on the now discontinued Lyman 358432 design .
If any wadcutter will feed through a Lever Action ... this one should .
I can't do photo's but www.noebulletmolds.com will take you to NOE website ...
Go to the store and click on .432 moulds , it's the 9th design shown ... #1 in the third row .
This design works like a champ in 38 - 357 and 41 Magnum and the design should work equally as well in a 44 Special - 44 Magnum .

Its gonna have to start with a .4, but that 253m would make a great 45 super mold.
It's no slouch in a 454 Casull or 45 Colt either.

No doubt. That's a nice looking design and target.
Have you guys seen that KevinJoe has not replied to a single post? He joined less than a week ago and is already offering to sell me something thru a buddy and email not on the forum. Smells like a scammer getting his post count up to me. Due diligence.
Yep, noticed that in his other threads as well. I guess if nothing else he gets the rest of us here talking about different topics. But there needs to be a special punishment for evil scammers...
I regret getting rid of that mold.
