Anybody hunt with this cartridge? If so what do you like or dislike about it?
I reload this round for both a 8" Dan Wesson and a 10" Contender. I don't hunt but used to shoot metallic silhouette a lot some years back - I just use the guns on the range now.
Would you share any load data for the Max?
I load 20gr of IMR 4227 with a 215gr gas checked cast bullet and small rifle primer. It was(and I would think still is) a real good load on the silhouette targets.
I don't know the velocity as I never checked it but it is pleasant enough to shoot all day. Could load it up more but this seems to work for me.
