44-40 reloading?

I have been reloading for many years and am looking into 44-40. My main experience is 223, 204 with some 9mm and 45acp. I am looking at 44-40, for Cowboy action. How do I know what bullets to order? I have a choice between 200 grain in .428, 429 or .430. Do I measure my cases or what? Please help?

What guns?
There is a lot of mismatch between .44-40 barrels, cylinder throats, and chamber necks, not to mention case necks and bullets.
I think the .428s will be a good compromise in most "sets" of guns.
