.44 Mag dual load...Handgun & Lever action

[dark_timber]

Looking for load suggestions for my Ruger Super Blackhawk and Puma Model 92 both in .44 Rem Mag. Has anyone worked up loads that give good performance in both their wheel guns and lever guns? My preference would be for lead bullets.

I've never used the Puma but in the Marlin, some of the SWC bullets hang up a bit when feeding, so some of the most accurate bullets in both guns may not feed so well in the lever. A flat point cowboy action bullet with a round profile seems to feed best for me.

I've never come across Ben's problem with Marlin. I always use the Keith designed, 429421 bullet, and interchange the loads. In other words, what works in one works in the other, and I too, have used the Super Blackhawk quite a bit.
