RE: Jacket Bullet for the 44 Mag
I too have a ruger black hawk 7.5in barrel in 44 mag, My most accurate load is a speer 225 JHP-SWC (jacketed hollow point semi wad cutter) over 23.5 grains of H110, they are great on paper with the iron sights shooting from a rest I consistantly group 1.25 to 1.5 inch groups at 50 yards. They also do the trick on whitetail, They are also very accurate with a sabot in my 50 cal muzzle loader.
