    .44 Russian

    Does anyone load .44 Russian? My question is, can I use my Lee .44 Special/.44 Magnum dies to load .44 Russian? I have been doing a little reading about and some people say you can, others say you can't. Any info would be appreciated.

    Actually got a 44 Russian test round put together. The expander die for 44spl/44mag would not work. But, I have the Lee universal expander die. It worked fine. The regular expander die is too long so I am going to have a machinist take about an 1/8" off the bottom of the die. Then I should be able to use the regular expander die.
