I’m looking to make a load for my .444 marlin that resembles a .44mag or even lighter.
Maybe a 200-250gr cast bullet. I have a hunting load that works tremendously but I have a special use for these light ones.
We butcher beef every fall and usually just use a .22lr which more often than not...
Hows the 4th Season going for everyone?
I think I wasted my points on 444. Seems like a great unit for the type that likes to be guided. Saw some decent ones on private. Some small sections of BLM along the private, but the deer seem like they probably got pushed off in 2nd season.
Whats most...
Hello all, I'm from Michigan and will be heading to zone 444 this Sept. To try my hand at finding a shooter. I have never hunted mountains before but have lots of experience hunting whitetail deer in Michigan. I was wondering if high country is best this that time of year or just for any tips...
Looking at hunting this unit the 1st week of September. I live in Alabama so making the trip out before the hunt really isn't possible. Curious if anyone has hunted the East side of the unit in the Holy Cross Wilderness. Wasn't sure how accessible Last Chance Trailhead and Tellerium...
I got a buck tag in 444, 2nd season and was just wanting some in sight on the unit from people who have been there. I have never hunted Colorado or in mountains so one question is should I concentrate on lower elevation areas maybe in the west side. More private over there, a little blm. Or are...

Any 444 shooters out there ?
Hello all,

Back in MN from 12 days in backcountry on Red Table mtn in 444 for blackpowder season. The two of us had quite an exhausting adventure, we set up spike camp at almost 12k feet, saw 4 bulls and a cow but 330 yrds was as close as we could get before getting busted. Most elk were down at 7k on...
Has anyone used the leverevolution ammo in .444 for elk? I shoot about 1 inch groups at 200 yards w/ a 4x scope, just not sure if this round is sturdy enough for elk.

It looks like a solid bill. However, I am curious about the intent of subsection 2-3. Seems like this will only decrease support for the...
