I reload all of my ammo so not sure what is available but I'm thinking any of the factory 454 Casull ammo will work fine for hunting.
I load from 240gr & 300gr XTP-Mag's/300gr Gold Dots/330gr WFNGC/345gr/360gr/395gr/405gr WLNGC's for my 20" barreled 454 Casull rifle also shoot from mild cowboy 200gr RNFP to my top 45 Colt loads when I do not want to use up my 454 Casull loads and I would not hesitate to use any of these for hunting.
I shoot grouse/rabbits with the 200gr cowboy loads.
To really enjoy your rifle you do need to get into reloading it drops the cost per round at least 5 times it doesn't drop the cost of shooting though because you shoot 5 times more...
