This may be well known but just in case it’s not....
I went to range today to shoot my ROA and when I got there I realized that I had forgotten my powder measure...
I found an empty 44 mag case and used it with great success.
When I got home I figured out that the 44 mag case will hold 40 grains of Goex 3f. Checked an empty .357 case and it will hold 28 grains.
The good news is I think I found a good/fun load for my ROA; lots of thunder and smoke:
40 grains of Goex 3f, Sagebrush lubed pill and a .457 Speer round ball.
Shooting from a rest at 25 yards my groups ranged from 1 3/4" to 2 1/2".
The best part about this load is that I eliminate the filler step.
