Nick, yell out if you need some brass, or advice on loading. I think I have a bag of new Starline tucked away safe somewhere for a rainy day, but I have about 600 in circulation through loading and...

I think I enjoyed the black powder more than anything. All of my red deer with .44-40 were black powder. (And they died just as quickly as if I'd shot them with a .270) But I shot a lot of...

Same. I foolishly shot a Fallow buck in the neck a few days ago. Silly thing to do with their current big pre-roar necks. Bullet didn't break the spine and I was lucky to get one into his shoulder....

Black powder is very little problem in a Winchester 92 chambered in .44-40. Just pour some water down the bore after shooting and wipe it out with a couple of patches and then an oiled patch - and...

Greetings Hunter_Nick, I don't have a .44 WCF but have read enough to understand that they are a whole new worm hole to go down. I suggest that you try and find someone who loads for them to help as...

Dies, .427" lead projectiles (NOT .429" as in other .44's), and cases are all fairly readily available. The M92 is made strong enough to use with smokeless loads. You are correct with the Saddle...
