Nov 30, 2012 · I'm a reloader (expert?) now approaching the 44 Rem. Mag. and the 44 Special reload, to use those ammo in a Ruger Alaskan 2.5 inchs barrel. The matter is that I thought to drill and carry the 44 Rem.Mag., and to play (and/or) carry the 44 Spl. 1. May I use the same dies to reload 44 Rem.Mag. and 44 Spl. at the same? 2.
