I've never known anyone to use that powder with the 44mag. Most 44mag users, including myself use ww296 or H110. These were made for the mag and seem to work best for all weights of bullets.

I've been experimenting with Lil'Gun in all my magnums, .357 to .454 Casull.

Here's one I chrongraphed earlier this summer in my Ruger Redhawk with 7 1/2" barrel:

Lee 310 gr. cast GC
19 gr. Lil'Gun
CCI 350
avg. velocity (10 shots) 1380 fps.
E.S. 55 fps.

What's it do in a 357 with the 158 gr Rem?

I use Lil'gun in my K Hornet, but never tried it in a .44 Mag....but have thought of using it in my Savage ML 10 with a 250 gr.

Interesting!!

LIL'GUN works with the 44 mag, but I think the smoke from H110 smells better.
