Haven't been around, been busy "forty-four'ing"

Between having company (when summer comes and you live "on the coast" you suddenly have lots of friends and relatives), and playing with some new beauties I have been a bit remiss in checking the Forum.
I have declared this to be "The summer of .44"
I was bemoaning to my wife about missing the Elmer Keith Memorial, and how I wished I had the right handgun for the event. (OK, you got me, I did have a 4" 629, a 4 5/8 flattop .44 Spl, and the 6 1/2 flattop magnum) but.... Anyway, she presented me with a Charter Bulldog Short barrel as a pre-"Father''s day" gift (I think I mentioned it in another thread) For the actual Father's day, she held out a surprise. A 6" pinned and recessed, nickled 29, with wooden box and all (althought the lining in the box was "gone").
 
I am going to attempt to impose on our moderator to post the photos for me as I have not started a new account with a hosting service yet.
 
To cut to the chase, I am spending free time trying to work up loads that are somewhat "universal" between the guns.  I will use the Bulldog load as a "light" load for the others, then a stout load for the Ruger .44 spl and so on up the ladder. I am not going to push things in the 29, and just a good hunting load for the Ruger magnum.
 
I need to, probably, use different bullets to make the loads visually identifiable, but I am trying to ostick to the same powder, 2400 or unique, at the moment. Just having fun and using it as a reason to get away from the "guests" and go up in the hills rather than shoot at my range "and disturb everyone".
BTW I stubled onto the perfect shoulder gun companion to a good .44 for "brush popping", the other day. A very nice Savage 24C in .22/20 ga, with a custom, local made, Myrtlewood stock. (skinned a smart alec dealer in the process $265)
 
I will go ahead and post now and prevail upon the good graces to get the pics up.
