375_H&H_Mag
Bearcat
I purchased my new (to me) SBH for casual shooting with 44 specials and DEER hunting at ranges of 50 yards maximum. I wanted to get some opinions on a good FACTORY load for WHITETAIL DEER hunting. I feel like the 180 grain bullets would serve fine with the power that the 44 mag has, but maybe I need something a little heavier. I plan to buy some dies soon for reloading as I reload for my '06 and 375 h*h mag and enjoy it. Tell me some good factory offerings that would provide good killing power on deer while keeping recoil to a minimum (no more than necessary because I will practice with the hunting rounds). There are no grizzlies here in Louisiana. The biggest threat here would be a rattlesnake, so no reason to load for bear for safety while hunting. :wink:
