RE: .44-77 and paper patch?
Don,
It seems to be all over the place. Pick a number between .070 and .085", I've just about seen them all. I hate to have a bunch of brass ready to go and then discover that the rims are too thin for proper headspace! I know it's a bottleneck case and you can headspace on the shoulder, slim though it is. Conversely, I don't want to have to set up and turn the rims down of a bucket full of brass. As much of a PITA as the latter would be at least when finally finish the rims would be correct.
