.429 Rhino 265-Grain Flat-Nose Bullets for .44 Magnum Rifles and .444 Marlin — 50 Count

$70.95

A 265-grain .429 Rhino for handloaders building beyond the ordinary 240-grain class for compatible .44 Magnum rifle and .444 Marlin applications. Fifty bullets, made to order and normally shipped within seven business days.

Description

For the handloader caught between ordinary and extra heavy

The common 240-grain .429 bullet may be lighter than the job calls for, while a 300-grain bullet can be more weight than the intended load or firearm needs. The traditional 265-grain class provides a useful middle answer, especially for lever-rifle and .444 Marlin handloaders searching for a jacketed flat nose.

The 265-grain Gold Country Rhino occupies that middle-heavy position. Its exposed-lead wide flat nose and reinforced jacket distinguish it from conventional handgun hollow points and from the heavier 300-grain Rhino.

We supply 50 bullets. The bullets are hand swaged in small batches, made to order and normally ship within seven business days.

What this choice changes

Choosing 265 grains changes the loading problem, not merely the label. Published data, seating depth, cartridge length, pressure, velocity, recoil, chamber fit and feeding must all be considered for the exact cartridge and firearm. The bullet’s construction does not guarantee accuracy, penetration or a particular field result.

Verify the complete lever-rifle system

Use current published jacketed-bullet data for the exact cartridge and bullet weight. Confirm seating depth, cartridge overall length, crimp, chamber fit and tubular-magazine and feeding compatibility in the rifle that will be used.

Reloading safety: Verify every recipe against the cited published source and its current edition. Begin only with the source’s stated starting load and confirm the exact cartridge, bullet, powder, primer, case, overall length, firearm, and pressure limits. A similar bullet weight or diameter does not establish interchangeability.
