[QUOTE="HARPERC, post: 587440, member: 30671"] If penetration is the only criteria, yes I believe that a hard cast 44 may out penetrate many expanding bullets, including the .375 300 partition. However, if penetration is all we are looking for a .375 350 grain Barnes Banded Solid will compete more favorably, as will a 385 grain Rhino in .375. The old 350 originals also create a long wound channel. While I've been favorably impressed with 300 grain .44's, in our Ruger carbines, the impact of the old H&H is visibly more. If Ruger ever makes a stainless version of the semi-auto, with a synthetic stock, pistol grip, collapsible buttstock it would be a tough to beat fishing gun. [/QUOTE]
