[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 469318, member: 2736"] The 444 is very impressive in a leaver rifle and also in a TC Contender. When I first started shooting one I found the 240 grain bullets to devastating because they were pistol bullets and then Hornady came out with the 265 grain Flat nose with a thicker jacket for rifle velocities and they were the answer for shots around 200 yards. I use H 4198 powder for best velocities and accuracy. The first time I saw the FTX bullets I was impressed with them and decided to try some. They extended the accuracy and performance to 300 yards with the same load. I now use them in .430 dia. .452 dia and .458 dia. (444, 450 bushmaster, 45/70. 45/110 and 45/120). They are the best I have found in these cartridges. Just my opinion J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
