Time for soul searching and self reflection.
After all these years and all this shooting I must admit that I have never owned a .44 Magnum.
I have shot plenty of them, worked on a raft of them, done custom work and repairs and fired hundreds of rounds from them in all forms large and small.
I have just never owned one all for my own.
I made all kinds of excuses, mostly centered around already reloading for a zillion calibers and not wanting to gather dies, mold blocks and gear for another caliber.
I do not know why I used that as an excuse since I buy the same for any new caliber I venture into. (who else would buy mold blocks for a 7mm rifle?)
I have been thinking of late, with Christmas on the horizon and all, that a nice big bore pistol might be a good present from me, to me. And since it is Christmas I might just include the dies and bullet mold as a package deal.
Soooo...
Rather than dwell on replacing the .22lr, which I have already done from two different directions anyway, I think I will double down and go all in for a .44!
I am open to comments that attempt to pull me back into a condition of sanity but do not hold your breath or maintain much hope, when I get to this state I am pretty far gone. :scared:
