I accidentally picked up a few hundred 300 grain XTP rounds for use in my .44 Special. The problem I'm having is I can find no loading data for this weight. I think my only option is to break down and buy either a .444 or .44 Magnum Marlin lever gun. But seriously, I would like to load this into my .44 Special. Any thoughts or experiences?



I proceeded to generate a Q/L simulation which of course included non traditional slow magnum rifle powders. I got a few comments from people who pretty much claimed this would NOT work. So today I did this.

44 special 300 grain speer 22 grains of hunter which is slower than H4350. Straight out of Quickload
