.44 mag

[Longcarbine]

I shoot in SASS comps with a .44mag use'n real BP.
Starting point for loading is to have the bullet compress the powder(3F)1/8-3/16".
Wether you'll want/need a card wad on top of the powder depends on what the target tells you.
What will you do for fouling control? Wipe or blow tube?

I will be wiping. Is fouling a big problem with BPC. Is powder fouling or lead fouling more of a dominate. I never really saw a problem with it when shooting muzzleloaders as far as powder fouling, I could shoot 20-25 rounds with out having to wipe the barrel, even in the smaller calibers. Of course lead fouling was never a problem because the ball never touched the inside of the barrel, being patched and all.
