I inherited a Marlin 444 from a relative who cannot shoot these Big Bores anymore. I am trying to find reloading supplies like bullets and brass. I got one box of Hornady LeverR from him but want to get some bullets and brass. Where are you buying these bullets and brass from? I'd like to try some Speer bullets but cannot seem to find any. What bullet weight would you suggest for the 444Marlin? Speer lists 240, 270 and 300 bullet weights, what would you suggest to try first (I may but two weights if I can find them.) And is Hornady brass good for reloading? I am fixing to get a scope on this lever.

The SN of this Marlin shows 231228xx and its an older Marlin.

Thanks for any info on where to order the stuff. BTW hope to order all of this from one place but that is probably not doable.
