Success with 200gr cast and Titegroup in 44 mag Rossi
Posted: 06 Aug 2017 16:27
I put together some real nice accurate 44 loads with 5.2 gr titegroup, cci 350, and a 200gr Oregon trail RNFP at .431. I pulled the data from Hodgden. I've been running the other end of the spectrum with 300gr and h110 lately. It's nice not to need a mouth piece to let a few rounds fly down range. I guess these would qualify as cowboy loads. I was able to hit golf balls at 25 yards off the bench. Good enough for small game. Wife was able to enjoy the 92 as well. I shot them out to 100y with a little Kentucky windage and was happy enough with the results. Kind of like lobbing rocks. Minute of pie plate. This load is just a joy to shoot. Pleasant in the ruger 3.75" SBH also.
The real success of the day was my wife shooting the 250 savage bolt gun. 6" groups, kneeling and leaning on a tree at 100-125y. She built some confidence and is excited for deer season this year.
Just thought I'd share this nice plinking load. Time to tumble some more brass.
