Alright, I admit I’m new to the world of casting boolits but not to the world of reloading. I’ve read the Lyman hand book and done a lot of looking at various sites but I’m still coming up short on very many load recipes. The two guns I’m casting for are a Ruger BH 44 special (tons of load data for it using .434 SWC bullets) and a Marlin 45-70. I’ll be purchasing a .460 405gr mold when funds allow but I’m not having much luck with finding load data for that bullet. Can you guys point me in a good direction for published data for that rifle and bullet combination?

Thanks, I just wasn’t sure that one 405gr bullet could be loaded same as the next. There’s a lot more variation in bullet designs with cast than there is with jacketed, it’s had me a little leery reloading for the 45-70.
