Anyone hunt with a 44 mag?

[TxAg]

I have a thing for lever actions, but I've never shot one of these. Anyone hunt with a 44 mag rifle?

Sure do. Henry golden boy. Haven’t killed much with it yet. Few pigs couple does and a turkey. Shooting plain white box Winchester soft points.

Yes sir. Knock over a deer every year or two with my Ruger Deerfield.

Don't have a rifle, but hunt with pistol from time to time.

I really want a Henry. Lots of models to choose from.

Thats fancy looking. I have a Super Blackhawk hunter in .44 with open sights. Accurate as can be.

I would love to have a lever action 44 mag.

.41 mag is much better! How ever most 50 yard rifles come in .44 mag
I don’t know why but .44 mag rifles make me hear banjo music and think about people wearing overalls to church “ with snakes involved “

Marlin 1894 44mag and Ruger SBH for me. 44mag flattens em where they stand

I've got a Henry 44mag lever gun with open sights that has absolutely flatlined 2 does. I break it out towards the end of the season and it's a ton of fun to shoot/ hunt with

Are snakes involved?

Don't have a rifle but I do have a .44 mag super redhawk. Lots of fun to put a empty refrigerant can out at 50 to 75 yds and bounce it around. Need to take a hog or deer with it.

I like the way you think.

Factory ammo? What distance? Shot placement?

[Johnny44]

I do, have, and always will.

I’ve had and have several of about every Forty-Four rifle made.

My go-to is a Henry BBS 16” with the big loop replaced with standard lever and Skinner dovetail ghost sights and front blade.

But, the current Winchester 92 can be had new for about $850 and its the best hands down.

I’ve killed about everything that needs killin with every type round to include handloads and the 240gr factory JSP does as good a job as any. The funky flavors kill no better but sometimes kill worse than the cheapo. The Buffalo Bore Type Keith loads are a whole nuther animal.

A 41 mag kills no better than my 410 using Brenneke slugs, its a fact.

I even have some 44’s scoped but It really ain’t necessary. I keep all my 44 mag shots at less than 100 because I always hunt like I’m bow hunting anyway.

Yup. 94 Winchester and Ruger Super Blackhawk
