Default RE: best bullet for 44 mag.

Reason I'm asking is one, I see all the home defense loads being low velocity, like Federand and remington at 1100fps with a 240gr hollow point. My load is kicking, at almost 1500fps. Then two, I see alot of home defense loads with real light bullets. Like corbon has or the glaser slugs.

Yea, Matt, I have been accused of being a tad jumpy. When I was a kid in Eastern Ky, we had some bold people break into our house with us still there. I was about 6 at the time, and no dad, died in war. So here we are locked in my mom's bedroom with my brother, and they cut the phone lines. Then came back in a week, when we wasn't and destroyed the place hanging all these old porno pictures all over the walls with a staple gun. These break ins happened about 5 times in a 4 year period. Then they harrassed us by calling telling they were going to kill us next time. Throwing dead dogs and cats on our carport. It was pretty freaky. Things were different then and there. No such thing as tracing a call, and police are far and few between out there. Only time they came in the hollers was if someone got shot. Most didn't have telephones. We had no defenses. We were powerless. They knew it. I only saw a glimpse of em. Never reconized them. I remember to this day how I felt. I swore to never be defenseless again.
