In a pistol, I know what is acceptable for performance. In my rifle, I know acceptable performance criteria.
In 44 mag or 45 Colt, I’m a bit confused. Some folks shoot jhp’s. I’m assuming if loads match factory that bullets will be effective. If shooting JSP’s, what velocity do I need at 100 yds to be effective on mule deer? or bears at 50ft/25yds? If SWC, same or different? Do I need 300gr bullets, or are 200’s fine.
