I have never exceeded the 24 gr 240 gr book load for 44 mag in my S&W 29-4. I have shot the same load over and over for years. I HAVE pushed the limits beyond the book loads just to see what would happen in 23 other calibers [usually case failure, some gun failures]. I think one of the things holding me back in the 44 mag is that it already kicks hard enough. | |||

Ya know, I got that max load from Hornady. But after looking at Hodgdon's data, I think I will back off to 24 or 23.5g. Every once in a while when your all stressed out, going and shooting 100 heavy H110 loads will be the medicine the doctor ordered. | ||

I routinely shoot a Hornady 240 gr. JHP with 24.7gr. of W296 (same as H110). It is extremely accurate in my Ruger SRH and shows no signs of excessive pressure. | |||
