Fireforming .44-77 brass?

RE: Fireforming .44-77 brass?
Kurt,

I'm not entirely sure how long the learning curve will be on this .44-77, but I hope I will get a handle on it fairly quickly. Once I have a sense of what powder, wad, primer and compression it likes I'll want to start thinking about what is the best bullet for it. At that point I'll be very interested in trying some. I would think 20 to 30 would be enough to see what the potential is.

Some of the brass I have is thicker in the neck and may lend itself to bore diameter pp very well with minimal sizing. The Jamison stuff would probably be better used with a 2-diameter bullet. My hope is to do a lot of testing with just about every kind of pp bullet there is and get a better understanding of how they can be used and just what works best or at least better. That of course will involve a lot of different molds and a lot of shooting, but I am ready and willing to give it my best for as long as I can! Someone has to do it and I might as well have in on some of the fun.
