Hey guys, picked up a Winchester 94 in 44 mag. Planning on using it for Eastern deer hunting(PA). Might occasionally take it bear hunting, but that’s doubtful. What’s your favorite factory deer bullet? A jacketed hollow point, or a jacketed soft point? I’m figuring at rifle velocities the soft point will reliably expand to a point. Will the hollow points over expand at those velocities, and not exit? I’m probably overthinking things, but don’t have any experience with the .44 mag at rifle velocities.


Oh, and believe it or not, deer bite. Fairly hard.
