    waco,
    6.2gn is listed as maximum for a 240gn lead projectile in .44 Magnum in our Factory load data.

    Hodgdon Clays is our Aussie AS30N. Very similar to Red Dot in burn rate.

    That's plenty for stumps or any "Bush Junk" that get's in your path!

    Regards,

    Kirby.

    clays is faster then red dot i think of it as a slow bullseye.
