I had shot this DEWC design in .44 special and 45 colt personal protection (blackhills?)_ at c; 1000 fps- low to moderate recoil and accurate., When I found a new pattern flattop blackhawk in .44 special I decided to stay pretty much at original factor velocieis and the 200 gr DEWC became my standard load in this revolver over 4 gr bulleye it does 795fps and groups well at 25 yards (so well I will not provide the group sizes which would be totally beleivable to Blackhawk shooters but would have Intenet Dick and his tribe yelling"liar." When'/if run out of Bullsye. I can almost certainly us any of several available powders to get the same results.

I have never seen these or shot them in 44 magnum and that is what intrigued me about them. They are a fun bullet to shoot and are very accurate. I loaded some on the soft side with Hodgdon 700X and some with Ramshot Enforcer at starting load, plus some with Longshot at starting load they shot very well in all 3 of my 44's a Taurus Raging Bull 8 3/8 inch barrel a S&W 629 Classic PP 6 inch barrel and a S&W 629 PC 7.5 inch barrel. If you want to have some fun at the range shooting holes in paper these should be your choice.
