The 44 Magnum was never a black powder cartridge, and was not invented in 1847 (Well into the 29th century). If you can give a more accurate description, we may be able to help- or have a firearms dealer take a look, and see what you have.
Chances are that if you overload the charge in a revolver style black powder pistol, you can blow up the cylinder or blow the barrel off the end of the gun.
There are none produced that I know of, a 209 primer would be over kill in a revolver due to the small chamber and lower amounts of powder.
