44 Mag load data using Ramshot powder & Nosler 240 grn J

[jtoews80]

If anyone has used the True Blue or Enforcer powders with nosler 240 grn JHP's in a 44 rem mag I would greatly appreciate the load data.

Or if POP wants to run it thro Quickload for me that would be awesome too, except I haven't got a burn rate for those powders.

Going to a gun show in Red Deer on the 3rd of May, haven't been to a show in years..... :grin: :lol: :grin: :lol:

Many thanks POP, that Enforcer looks deadly velocity-wise. Guess I'll have to try and get some :lol: :lol: :lol:

Go for it and let us know.

This may have to wait until I can go into the US in person and get some. THe only RS dealer here is WHolesalesports and they usually don't have anything Ramshot. From what the RS customer service commented they are looking for dealers, but haven't gotten anything set up at this time.

I'm going to a show tomorrow and hope that somebody may have some there.
