I acquired a .44 mag and am looking for a good factory load or two for pigs and deer. I know each gun is a little different on which loads will shoot well but I'm looking for a few to try that will do the job well.

What's the gun you'll be using?
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

I would go with a 240 JHP of some variety.
The secret to a long life is to try not to shorten it.
