Then sometime around 1980, Kelly and I think Jones, began to pump up the .44 cast bullets to 270 gr. then 300, 320 gr. That even stresses the New SBH and I feel paved the way for a even stronger Red Hawk and others to manage these "heavy for caliber" deviations. NO doubt the 300 gr. projectile put the .44 Magnum into a new level of power, taking a back seat to nothing properly applied. However the old standard was not too shabby itself!
