RE: some 44-77 questions
Devil in the detail is in the wiping solution and routine as well. Most widely used wiping solution with paper patchers, that shoot well, seems to be napa oil and water mixed at 1-7. Lots of ways to get there, but having a clean bore is important, and even Remington cautioned us in 1875 to have some lubrication in the barrel, or on the patch. Perry's book goes into great detail on shooting accurately.
The unsized case bit is up for opinion and personal preference as well. I know 3 out of the 4 patch shooters at the 2016 bptr nationals resize their cases and then use a custom expanding stem to fit their patched bullet diameter.
Shooting dirty with accuracy can be accomplished, and it's not as hard/unlikely to happen as some would have you believe, but the best way to consistent accuracy is by wiping.
A wise man can always be found alone. A weak man can always be found in a crowd.
