RE: Time continue load development with my .44-77.
Kurt,

I weighed the 160 bullets I cast today. The 100 that are right 1.350" were 486.X to 487.X with just a few that were 485.X.

The 60 that turned out to be 1.398" were 506.X to 507.X with 9 that were 505.X and 2 that were 508.X. Those 505 grain ones all came in a bunch so something was up for just a short time and went away just as quickly. It may have been after I took a short break but I didn't make note of how many I had cast at that point. The 2 at 508 were just barely, like 508.2 and 508.3. That will never show up on the target even at 1000 yards.

They all look good so I'll see what I can get shot tomorrow. It's supposed to be 54 degrees and sunshine. That might make it a little soupy walking down to the target!
