44 Mag Range Report

Post by **JEBar** » Mon Jan 20, 2020 7:53 pm

Bullets .... Nosler 270 gr JHP Blems
Powder .... 23.8 gr W296
Primer .... CCI Large Pistol Magnum
Case .... Assorted

since the Mid '60's the above load has been our hunting and range load .... it has been used effectively for hunting Black Bear, Boar, and Whitetail Deer .... game has been taken while shooting Ruger Redhawk, Ruger Blackhawk, and Ruger semi automatic Carbine .... it is the only round we fire in our Henry CCH 44 Mag .... today we fired 124 rounds

the first target shows 15 rounds fired at 50 yards ... while firing it a couple of different, two click adjustments were made to the scope's elevation and windage settings ....

the second target shows the next 50 rounds at 50 yards .... once again, while firing them a couple of small adjustments were made

the third target shows the last 20 rounds fired .... no adjustments were made

I consider this rifle to be a 100 yard gun .... the next time I take it to the range, I intend to raise the elevation to zero it about 1" high at 50 yard... doing so will result in if being about that high at 100 yards .... today was a fun one, looking forward to the next

Not seeing those targets, but hopefully will soon.

Yeah, even though I no longer hunt with a 44 mag handgun, I still consider a 44 mag revolver to be an essential part of our collection.
