hello forum.i load my brass frame 44 with a empty 38 brass as a measure witch I believe is about 18 grns.i love my gun so I keep the loads mild.when the ball is seated it is well below the cylinder mouth.i have heard it said the use of fillers improves accuracy.stands to reason that when the ball hits the forcing cone and engages the rifiling that it would be the same.anyone tried both ways and seen adifference?also would simple toilet paper suffice?thanks.get out there and make some smoke!!!
