gtbullets.com has .432 cast bullets of 96-2-2 alloy which (I believe) is BHN 10-12ish. Montana Bullet Works also has .432 cast bullets but they range from 15 to 22 BHN

I don't think you would go wrong with a 357, especially if that's what you generally carry anyways.

glad you think also ,thank you ,Pete53

MM,

I'm glad you found a good Rossi on the first try. I've had three (357 and 45 Colt) and they've run the gamut from 'needs internal work to run' to 'pretty damn good'. People I trust are of the opinion these newer CBC R92s are the best ones yet.

Another source for oversize 44 bullets is Bear Creek Supply. I had an old 70's Cattleman 44 mag which had 0.433" cylinder throats and it really liked that outfit's 200 grain 44 bullet, ordered at that diameter. BC has pretty much become the only lead bullet I use these days. I've used them in various calibers and have never had a bad one yet.

Best of luck with your new rifle.
