Description

Made to order. Normally ships within 7 business days.

This .44 Magnum hunting ammunition is built primarily for lever-action rifles. It combines the 265-grain Gold Country Rhino flat-nose bullet with tube-magazine-safe geometry, secure crimping and the structural integrity needed for a working rifle load. It is also compatible with appropriate .44 Magnum revolvers.

Built for the .44 Magnum lever rifle

A handgun cartridge behaves differently when fired through a rifle-length barrel. This load is positioned for shooters using .44 Magnum lever guns who want more bullet weight than the common 240-grain class without moving directly to a specialized 300-grain load.

• 265-grain jacketed Gold Country Rhino bullet
• Flat nose for tubular-magazine use
• Cannelure for secure bullet retention
• New Starline brass
• 20-round box

Why 265 grains?

The 265-grain weight occupies a useful middle ground for .44 Magnum rifles: heavier than the standard 240-grain class, yet more broadly useful than many extra-heavy loads. It is intended for hunters and lever-gun shooters who value momentum, penetration and reliable feeding over lightweight velocity.

The Gold Country Rhino flat-nose bullet

The Rhino uses a thick copper jacket, lead core, flat base and exposed-lead flat nose. Its broad frontal profile and supported construction are designed for controlled crush and straight-line penetration rather than dependence on a polymer tip.

Handloaders can purchase the same component bullet separately: 265-grain .429 Gold Country Rhino flat-nose bullets, 50 count.

Choose the package that fits your shooting

This 20-round box is the lower-commitment way to try the load in your rifle. Shooters who already use it regularly can choose the 50-round .44 Magnum rifle-ammunition package.
