Buffalo Bore Ammunition 44 Remington Magnum 255 Grain Lead Semi-Wadcutter Gas Check 20RD

Buffalo Bore Ammunition's 44 Remington Magnum 255 Grain Lead Semi-Wadcutter Gas Check rounds deliver the kind of serious performance handloaders and revolver enthusiasts demand. Built on proven hard-cast bullet technology, these cartridges are engineered for shooters who need reliable, consistent performance in medium to large-frame revolvers. Whether you're working up loads for hunting, defensive carry, or range practice, Buffalo Bore's attention to bullet construction—including the gas check that aids consistent ignition and reduces fouling—sets this load apart from off-the-shelf commodity ammunition.

The 255-grain semi-wadcutter bullet profile is a classic choice for 44 Magnum shooters. This weight and design combination provides excellent ballistic performance while maintaining manageable recoil impulse compared to heavier magnum loads. The hard-cast lead bullet resists deformation under velocity and pressure, delivering reliable expansion and penetration for hunting medium game, while the semi-wadcutter profile offers the practical benefits of both target shooting and field use. Gas-checked construction ensures proper bullet-to-bore contact and helps minimize leading in the cylinder and barrel.

Each box contains 20 rounds, making it convenient for range sessions, load development, or field work. If you shoot a 44 Remington Magnum revolver regularly—whether it's a hunting rig, a defense gun, or a beloved range gun—Buffalo Bore ammunition represents a thoughtful, quality-built alternative to mass-produced factory loads and a reliable component for your shooting practice.
