300grn 44cal
Who makes 300grain .44 slugs?

I have a little Ruger carbine in .44 and hear they like heavy bullets though I con't find any 300gn bullets...

Who make the 265?

Thanks

In factory ammo check out the Federal 300 Cast core.. not sure it gets any better.....

For loading your own I suspect there are quite a few out there. Personally I use bullets by Beartooth bullets in Idaho-there 250 Keith Hard cast.

Good luck

I use 300 grain Cast Performance bullets in my 444 Marlin. They work very well in 444 and 44 mags. If I was going to choose one for a 44 Mag. rifle it would be this bullet, it has a lot of surface area and should hit hard.
Is it a semi-auto ruger or a lever action? I think they use similar mags, and they should feed well, although I haven't tried them in a ruger.

Hornady bullets in 265 and 300 grain are listed at MidwayUSA's web. Several other bullet makers there have 300 grain 44cal. bullets listed. While it might be hard for you to order from MidwayUSA, you can check them out to see what is available for what your looking for. Hope this helps. Jimmy

Your local dealer or any of the on-line sellers.
