Loaded easily in 10.4x42 Swiss as a jacketed option.

This bullet fits perfectly for my specific application in a sporterized Swiss Vetterli. Just have to make sure the gun can handle longer brass and the overall neck width of the seated projectile. I lucked out that mine is generous enough to handle this projectile with a suitable weight and diameter for my barrel. Your mileage may vary but it was worthwhile to at least give it a try. Wouldn't think twice about taking it in the deer woods!
Loaded for Bear

Seriously, this bullet is going to pack a punch and am in great hopes that my son will get an opportunity to prove it on a ME Black Bear next week using his .44 Mag. Patterns well and hits hard, You can expect excellent performance from Hornady XTP's.

Purchased these for loading in 10" Encore 44 Mag for subsonic use. These should perform well, based on their impact velocity recommendations. Have not tested yet.

I use this bullet in a Thompson Contender 44 Magnum. 14-inch barrel. H110 powder. This bullet is consistently accurate out to 50 yards. Fabulous penetration on deer and elk. You will not go wrong with this bullet.
300 grain XTP

This is an excellent hunting option. The 300gr XTP has much more inertia and thus, much more penetration than the lighter weight .430 offerings. I was testing this bullet against the 300gr Nosler and this bullet held together better and retained more weight in water jug testing than the Nosler bullet. Another reason for choosing this bullet over the Nosler hollow point is it's ease of loading without damaging the hollow point or meplat. I got between 30 and 36 inches of penetration in water with this bullet at velocitys between 1250 and 1450 FPS. Pushing this bullet out of a Henry rifle at 1400 FPS will deliver about 1300 ftlbs of energy. Very respectable deer hunting load.
