44-40 loads

[porpoise]

I use 7.5 gr. Tinstar with a lead 200 gr. Bullet to get a little over 1000 fps. And 9.3 gr tinstar to get a 200 gr. Plated bullet to the same speed. I also use 22 grains n110 with the plated bullet to get 1800 fps in my marlin. I wouldn't hesitate to try a bit more than that in 4227 to get the same speed

Hi everyone, I’m looking for some advice on loading 44-40, I recently acquired a 1921-1928 Winchester 92 .44wcf and am finding it difficult to get load information on the internet

the 92 is realtively strong, what bullet and velocities are you after?

Following, as I'm looking at the 44-40 vs 38-55 rifle for some lr steel shooting

Close up the space after .com and this link should work. This site contains all the info you should need to produce 44-40 RIFLE cartridges, up and including information on duplicating the factory High Velocity loads.
