THE NUMBER FOURTEEN SPEER LOADING MANUAL HAS THAT SPECIFIC BULLET LISTED IN THE 44MAG SECTION WITH LOADING DATA FROM SIX DIFFERENT AND APPROPRIATE PROPELLENTS.
THE NEW HODGDON MANUAL HAS 44MAG DATA WITH 300gr JHP BULLETS WITH TWELVE DIFFERENT PROPELLENTS.

A really light load is between 11, and 13 grains of BlueDot....whatever is accurate. This is for any 300 grain bullet. How fast does a 300 grain bullet really have to go?? (According to me, not over 900 or 1000 fps)
