Picked up a .44 mag lever gun off another member here and am going to be using it for deer this season... whats reccommended for ammo?
My first loads I've pumped out of my Hornady LnL have been much more accurate than any of the cheap factory ammo(incl WWB) that I've tried.See above post. Nothing wrong with hand loads or special ammo but it is not needed for whitetail deer. Heck the hole going in is bigger than many rifle rounds expand to.
Winchester white box ammo is nothing fancy, generic white box available at MEGA_LOW_MART or rural King (preferred over MEGA_LOW_MART) around 30 a box of 50 and will work well in lever guns where many SWC will not reliably cycle.
I have tried lots of ammo gold dots, leverevolution stuff, corbon. Nice stuff but the WWB is what I hunt with as my shots are normally very close well within 100 yards.
