Would these 240 grainers be a good load for deer and hogs from a 44 Magnum?  They shoot great in my SBH Hunter.

I'm sure they would work great on deer, I never hunted hogs so can't say from experience.  I'd lean toward a hard cast lead slug if I were to hunt hogs though.

The JHP would work on both the deer and hog. Just make sure of your shot placement. But I do lean toward a hard cast for hogs.  :-)
