homeloads in .44 taurus tumbling

[mag44uk]

none of the bullets should be going sideways irrespective of suitable powder weights or crimp.
personally I would slug the bore then slug the mouths of the chambers.

I've been using 6.0gns of Unique for over 20 years, it's my preferred gallery load in .44. Mike the bullets or slug the bore somethingbis not right here and it's not powder from what you've said so far since upping the Lovex load.

Years ago now, but I used to use Unique in .32 ACP, 9mmP and 44 Mag, and it worked very well in all of them, and I never saw a side-on strike.

'Tain't called Unique for nothing.

UPDATE..... glad to say its sorted boys ,few of you boys were bang on ,i finally grew the balls to hammer a lead slug down the barrel

lead flashing is really soft and melts quickly,went thru a doddle ,with my new digi calipers slug was .428 to .432

the first bullet heads from local shop .429 ,were actually nearly all undersize ,so undersize heads....oversize barrel causing gas blowing past sides of lead head

got some .430 from excellent SHELLHOUSE BULLET COMPANY, better,still slight tumble on some

then got .432 ,sorted after all these weeks here is my eyeball pleaser,thanks again boys 25yards 240gr rnfp 6.3g of unique
