  2. 1894
    RPP’s first wildcat cartridge, the .44 RIPSAW, made its explosive debut at our test facility this weekend, and staff all returned with RIPSAW lust in their hearts. It’s one thing to look at a gun on paper and speak in the abstract about its performance potential. It’s quite another thing to...

    I'm picking out my equipment to do small volume reloading primarily for my 1894 .44 mag. I need some plinking rounds and Winnie white box at $44/box ain't it. I will likely reload some jacketed hollowpoints but primarily I will use the Dardas .432 lead wadcutters for target/fooling around as...
