if you can find any try the Lee mold slug for the '58 .44. it has a 'reduced heel' for easy loading.
an AK or SK caseful of 3F, a felt and the slug fills the chamber, is a 'hot load' and shoots good, hitting hard. I once shot this load thru a jack pine that stopped a .357mag 125gr semi-jhp.
I also took a small feral/wild hog with this load - a head shot DRT. blew a good sized chunk of skull off.
