I have a Winchester 94AE in 44 Magnum, with a 16 inch barrel.
What gr bullet would you recomend?
Thank You.
Got to agree with the rest. Shot placement is boss.
Now if you are set on the .44 then 240 gr RNFP Cowboy HC lead. Depending on how much speed you are wanting ya can go with (off my head) about 10 gr of unique for about 1700 ft/s. If you want something a little speedier then you can go with a compression load with a slower burning powder without spiking your chamber pressure.
Always consult your books before making a load.
