[ARCHIVED THREAD] - .44 Spl handloading data

Posted: 12/11/2016 11:54:57 PM EDT

Just ordered some Hornady 180gr XTP bullets but can't find any reloading data using Unique or Titegroup powder.

Anyone have a load already worked up or from a manual ?

Unique powder.

5.9gr = 750 fps start load
7.5gr = 900 fps max load

Hornady #9 source.

I've used Unique to make hot loads in my charter arms 44 bulldog and it's a good combo.

Loaddata.com is your friend. For $29.95 per year you'll have access to over 300,000 loads, including a very large among for the .44 Special, that can be printed or saved, and retained. This would include 20 loads for the powder/bullet combinations you seek.

A link to a 2005 alliant manual. The last of the "GOOD" allaint manuals. It has reloading data for the 44spl in the 44spl section and the cowboy action section.

Some 44spl reloading data, a few years back Brian Pearce did a article for handloader magazine on reloading the 44spl. A link to the article.

Interesting reading, a NRA article on reloading the 44spl. A lot of the this old data mirrors Pearces data.

Titegroup loads can be found on the Hodgdon website.
