Doug is interested in the silhouette Sierra 250 gr. and 220 gr., what I call "reverse FMJ". I'd much prefer a good flat meplat FNGC, slicker and hits plenty hard. Gary loves the Sierras and Doug does too, hey to each his own. The standard .44 Mag. typically garners around 1500 fps with the best powders you can find. We will try LilGun for lower pressures. Something I wanted to try.
We were looking over trajectories, factoring in the possibilities along with his prowess. 100 yds. sounded like a good goal considering all. That's good for 20 yds. to about 120 for basically direct sighting on bigger critters. I'll keep you posted. He just got the gun today.
