I have a Ruger Super Blackhawk revolver and a Marlin M1984 carbine, both in .44 Magnum. I have noticed with certain handloads of H110 or W296, where loads that function and eject just fine in the revolver stick in the chamber of the carbine. I am guessing on chamber differences, anyone else see this? sputster | ||

Spud, I have SBH in 44Mag and a Winch. Trapper w/ 16" tube. I pretty much just use Unique, 8.0 grns, for low plinking and 19-20.5 grns H110. I use 240 grn lead for low and several hard cast and jacketed for the hot loads. Never had any issues w/ sticking in either. Sounds like rifle chamber is a little tighter. Love this pistol/rifle combo. Good luck w/ your issue and good shooting! The things you see when you don't have a gun. NRA Endowment Life Member Proud father of an active duty Submariner...

Hey Spudster, brainfarted. You should slug both. That should tell you pretty quickly. The things you see when you don't have a gun. NRA Endowment Life Member Proud father of an active duty Submariner... Go NAVY! | |||

I shoot the same loads in a revolver, a Contender, and a rifle, and haven't had any issues with cases sticking, but I'm using 2400, and I'm a little under max. My guess is that the chamber is a little tight on the rifle. I'd just work the load up in the rifle, and use that load in both. It will be a little lighter, but I'm guessing that game animals won't be able to tell the difference. | |||

You may have already done this but maybe try a really good in depth cleaning on the carbine. be sure to really scrub the chamber in case you have some junk in there | |||
