.44-77 and paper patch?

[Distant Thunder]

How far up the neck should I fill with powder plus wad? What diameter bullet? I've got two sets of brass in the works, not sure which ones will work out best, but that will be resolved in time. If everything works out tomorrow I'll try to bring a few of each and we'll see how each looks after firing.

This will give me some fireformed brass to ponder! I can drool all over them! I'd hate to drool on someone else's brass!
