I was given a couple boxes of Beartooth 265 gr. WFNGC .432 diam. bullets several years ago that were leftover from an estate sale. I have been experimenting with them lately to use for an elk hunting load for a late,late (Dec. thru Jan.) season cow elk hunt on private land. Normally I use a .300 mag rifle and call it grocery shopping, but I got a moose last year and have plenty of meat in the freezer. So, to make it a little more challenging, I decided to use my scoped .44 mag Redhawk (7-1/2" barrel) and turn it into more of a hunt. Maximum range is going to be 100 yds. or closer. I've loaded up to 24.0 gr. of 296 so far to get about 1216 fps. Does anyone know how fast I could push this bullet and with what load? Similar to a jacketed bullet of the same weight? I have lots of 296 and H110 powder. I used a plug gauge on the cylinder mouth, all cylinders measured .231". The groups I have been shooting off the bench are typically around 6" at 100 yds. with these bullets.
