Development of PP loads for the .44-77.

[Kurt]

Those are starting to look very good Jim for 200.
I think your seeing some difference with the load volume because the cases are blown out properly for your chamber.
With the heat today, from your amount of powder with slight com[pression you must not be using lube. Are you feeling a lot of drag when you're wiping?



Arnie,
No I don't think it is a fouling issue. I did not feel any drag pushing the damp patch through and the following dry patch had very little on it.
When I got home I pulled the scope and checked the block screws and they were tight and put the scope back on. I will reload what I shot this morning and do it again. Supposed to be hotter tomorrow and it looks like it will start raining this evening making the humidity a bear tomorrow.
I got the .441/525 DD ordered for this loose chamber and tight throat.
