A good powder for the 44 Mag
« on: November 04, 2007, 05:40:25 AM »
I just loaded up some 44 mags using Honady 240 gr XTP and Ramshot Enforcer powder... Man what a great combo.... This Handi with open sights is ACCURATE at 100 yards even in the hands of a 12 year old boy! (Goin to be his first deer riffle)

I did go over the Max load listed for a handgun but also set the bullet out some... This chamber isn't as long as I have read some are though...

Just wondering if anyone else out here has used this powder bullet combo and what kind of results???

How long did you make your load? I don't use the same combo that you are using but I have went over the handgun max load with mine as well and see no high pressure signs.
