Posted By: judgement .444 cartridge. 45 round - 06/02/12
I bought a circuit judge rifle a while back. A wonderful gun to play with, but something I noticed was, with the standard .45 lc rounds, I'm about two inches away from the rifling decreasing my accuracy. So I started thinking. What if I can find a way to find or make a cartridge long enough, to help me with the accuracy by bring the bullet closer to the rifling. I feel that the .444 cartridge will help solve my problem. But I've done some research on the 444 round and found out that, the .444 as a pressure rating of 44,000cup, where as the .45 lc as a pressure rating of 14,000cup and the 410 shot as a pressure rating of 13,500. So I can't shoot the .444 round through to expand the cartidge to the judge cilinder, with out blowing it up. If some as an idea to what I can do please feel free to speak out or to tell me to find a new hobby.

And you have that whole .429" bullet in a .451" bore thing, too. Probably wouldn't help accuracy as much as the 2" jump.

I'm plan is to use the. 444 cartridge and load .451 bullet, so the two inch jump will help out the accuracy. I'm tryin to figure out how I can use the 444 cartridge and load it with a. 45
I use dacron and reduced loads of pistol powder to fire form rifle cases. I got the dacron trick from an old timer that used I think a 65gr bullet on a .30-06. It was like an accellerator (SP). He would take the same gun to shoot deer or squirrels and rabbits. **Don't fireform inside** The dacron does create a good size fireball that might (did) set the curtains on fire.
