[QUOTE="436, post: 1865634, member: 16609"] Hey guys, I thought since we are on the .44 Mag and stopping unhappy Bears and such, I'd bring this up. Nosler made a fantastic bullet a few years back, then pulled it out of the marketplace it was the Nosler Partition .44 cal 250gr HP with a (.429") diameter. I called Nosler a while back because'..., I only had a few left which I loaded into my Marlin 444... in of course the .444 Remington, ( I had loaded most of them early on into my .44 Mag for both my rifle and pistol), I digress; I asked the gentleman at Nosler why they took them off the market, he pretty much said; "he had no idea" I was thinking perhaps it was because they weren't cheap and probably didn't get the sales production they wanted at the time due to cost of manufacturing and sales pricing, with that said, they work great in my .44 Mag rifle and my .444 Rem Marlin. I mentioned to him that if Nosler would or have someone else load that bullet into a hotter "rifle" and more energized "handgun" load... well, they'd own that market, especially as popular as the Marlin 444 in .444 Remington is getting again, telling him; "I thought they'd have a winner of the first order for an off the shelf load for both". I'm not trying to highjack the thread, but... as anyone else here used these bullets in the past? Cheers. [/QUOTE]
