I have been cutting down some .44 Special brass to make .44 Russian loads. I like the thought of .44 Russian, less powder and more velocity. The trouble is I can't find an accurate min./max. overall length. I have checked Hornady, Speer #13, and all Lee 2nd Edition gives me is 1.430". When I seat a 200gr lead bullet at 1.430 it barely even crimps in the lube groove. So what the hell is going on? Can some one help a brother out?
