[mtbuck]

I just inherited a .44 lever action winchester, my question is what grain bullet should i use for hunting. i also have extra rounds of

.22-250 and .30 cal carbine if someone would like to have them just let me know and i'll gladly send them to you.

Grab a couple of different brands and see what the gun shoots better.I think I am shooting a 240 grain out of mine.Remingtons

I agree w/NyHunter, try a few dif brands. You will probably find one that works good. I like Federal 300 grain but test the waters to see what your gun likes...

Hornady 225gr Leverevolution. Took my deerfield carbine from a 50yrd gun shooting federal 240gr HP to a 100yrd gun. Used to be able to shoot and wait to hear the bullet hit the target at 100yrds now its Bang Thud.
