1 local shop had a couple boxes of Double Tap hard cast. 1 had a box of Fiocchi "flying garbage can" sjhp.
Track of the Wolf shows Starline brass is in stock. Everybody has .429 bullets right now. I have not reloaded in 30 years…
I woods carry my "BBQ gun" 1931 S&W 3rd Model .44 Hand Ejector. Wife's grandfather was a motor officer, won it in a department poker game. Swapped the grips and put it back in the rotation.
Also still use his modified way back when .38LC recut for .38Spl. Track has .38LC brass in stock. Thinking about loading for it too. Revolver is circa 1920, no name Eibar (Basque) made. Shoots fine but .38Spl is a good bit hotter than .38LC.
 
Man old revolvers are great! I have a 1923 manufactured S&W 44 hand ejector 5 inch nickel with staghorn grips. Good luck with your reloading endeavors.

Thanks!
Mine is a 4" factory nickel, with carved mother of pearl round tops. Swapped for cheap plastic, the pearls are kinda fragile. Wolf and Klar per S&W forums. Has put down several "road hunter" gut shot does.
 
Bear Creek Bullets has some full wadcutters that are excellent and very reasonably priced. They are hollow based so you can load them backwards for a devastating hollow point bullet. They have a wide and deep selection of bullets in many calibers.
